The Severin ST1

A Boutique Take on the 1950s Classic. Handcrafted. High-Output. Built to Perform.

The Severin ST1: Iconic Soul, Modern Muscle

The Severin ST1 takes the timeless "T-style" silhouette and re-engineers it for the high-performance player. While the design pays homage to the legendary solid-body guitar that started it all, the ST1 is a different beast entirely—combining exotic materials and a "comfort-first" carving process to create a modern powerhouse suited for everything from blues to high-gain metal.

Exotic Multi-Wood Artistry

Every ST1 is a masterwork of natural textures and premium tone woods. While each build features a unique combination of woods, the core philosophy remains the same.

  • The Foundation

    We pair resonant body woods (such as Sipo Mahogany or Ash) with striking book-matched tops (like Roasted Flame Maple or Walnut).

  • Intricate Details

    Accented with hand-selected wood details—including Wenge, Maple, or Walnut—and handcrafted pickup rings and control knobs that make every instrument unique.

  • A Natural Feel

    Most models are treated with Odie’s Oil for a luxurious, breathable satin sheen. This finish offers a fast, organic feel that thick, high-gloss "poly" finishes can't match.

Performance-Driven Ergonomics

We’ve removed the "clunky" barriers of vintage designs to give you total fretboard freedom.

  • Custom Carves

    Every ST1 features a "comfort" belly carve, a forearm contour, and a custom-carved neck heel for effortless access to the highest frets.

  • The Neck

    A stable, high-performance neck (often featuring Roasted Maple) designed with a familiar '62 C-shape profile for a fast, comfortable grip.

  • The Board

    Durable fretboards (like Wenge, Bloodwood or Rosewood) loaded with Stainless Steel Jescar medium/large frets for silky-smooth bends and lifetime durability.

Elite Electronics & Hardware

The ST1is designed to be a "Zero-Upgrade" guitar—everything from the nut to the output jack is professional grade.

  • Premium Pickups

    We load our ST1s with high-output humbucking sets from industry leaders like Seymour Duncan and DiMarzio, ensuring your guitar is ready for the stage right out of the case.

  • 5-Way Versatility

    Using a 5-Position Super Switch, we unlock a wide range of humbucking and single-coil textures, giving you a massive palette of tones in one instrument.
