The Phred Instruments Reprise is a small body archtop guitar: hand built, carved top and back, sides moulded and shaped to form, all solid woods, parallel bracing, kerfing, and fully hollow.


Featuring a hand carved curly maple top, curly maple back, and mahogany sides, the body is bound in maple on the top, back, and sides.


The flame maple neck with an ebony fingerboard is also bound by maple, and the maple binding goes all the way around the headstock.


Additional features include a nitro glossy finish, 24 frets, 25.5” scale length, and a arch top style neck joint.


Electronics include a dual humbucker setup with Seymour Duncan '59 pickups, discrete humbucker/split coil/parallel switches per pickup, and a 3-way pickup toggle. One main volume, and one tone control.


Our small team of expert luthiers overseas build jazz arch top guitars and every detail of Reprise is drawn from that tradition.


Reprise is professionally setup in California with low action and D'Addario 10-46 strings. The frets are leveled, dressed and milled for a nice smooth and clean feel all around. Hardware and Electronics are installed in California as well.

Body
The fully hollow archtop body features a mahogany side, a curly maple back, and a curly maple top, with a dual humbucker setup, discrete series/split/parellel switches and a 3-way pickup toggle for 8 different tone combinations! There is one master volume and one master tone knob for dialing in your tone.  The guitar strings pass over a floating bridge that is not anchored to the guitar body. Similar to a violin, banjo or mandolin bridge, the bridge simply rests on top of the body and is held in place by string tension.  The ebony tailpiece is attached to the end of the guitar, holding the strings in place.  There is one 1/4" standard guitar output jack on the side of the guitar body.  Reprise ships inside a custom Hard Shell Case.

Neck
The maple core neck is set-in to the body with glue.  The back of the neck contour is a C-shape that feels somewhere in between a strat and an LP neck, not too thin, and not too chunky either.  The 2-octave ebony fingerboard has 24 medium jumbo frets which are leveled and milled here at our shop in Agoura Hills, California for a nice smooth feel along the edge of the fretboard and all around.  The fretboard features a 14 inch radius which is perfect for soloing and playing chords up and down the fretboard.  Topping off the fretboard are custom "powerful pill" pearloid inlays designed by PHRED instruments.  At the top of the neck, you'll find a bone nut for good sustain, with a tilt-back 6-inline headstock featuring our signature Phred Instruments logo.  Under the fretboard is the adjustable double-expanding truss rod, keeping the neck stable in any climate.

The PHRED instruments Reprise gets its inspiration from Trey Anastasio's Languedoc guitar.
