| Italia Maranello Electric Guitar Ref: maranello
Italia Maranello electric guitar.
Echoing one of the most collectable and rare European electric guitars, but with the sound and playability demanded by the musicians of today, the Maranello is THE guitar for you if you dare to be different! After all, individualism is what Italia guitars are all about... A classic red finish sits atop a stunning 'crushed ice' look pearloid body back and sides, neck and headstock back and front too, with a 3 + 3 kidney button Gotoh tuner layout.
And what about that individually shaped 'floating' pickguard, which carries the two Wilkinson vintage-voiced alnico V humbuckers? Plus the Volume and Tone rotaries, 3-way toggle pickup selector and neat up-angled output jack? Not to mention a 22 fret neck, block plastic fret markers, bound 12" radius rosewood fingerboard, tune-o-matic bridge and smart Italia covered stop bar tailpiece!

On a recent 'Live In The Morning' session' for the Ken Bruce Show on Radio 2, Chris Rea performed
a selection of songs live, from his just-released 'Greatest Hits' package. The material included Chris' new single, 'Come So Far, Yet Still So Far To Go' with its gritty, rocking lead guitar hooks featuring Chris' unmistakeable slide style, performed on his much-loved blue sparkle style Italia Maranello, of which he has just taken delivery of a further two.
