Paoletti Guitars: Handmade electric guitars from Italy with an extensive custom concept
The Paoletti Alfa Loft Heavy Sage Green is a special custom store electric guitar with an unmistakable character and handmade boutique quality from Italy. This model from the Paoletti Alfa range is characterised above all by its body made of solid chestnut wood (Chestnut), which in combination with the eye-catching Heavy Relic finish in Sage Green definitely stands out from the crowd and underlines the individual approach of Paoletti Guitars. A central feature of the brand is the extensive custom concept: almost all components can be individually specified on request, making each instrument a truly unique piece. Every Paoletti is therefore not just an instrument, but an individual one-off with a high boutique standard. The models available in the store are also based on this configuration concept and represent specific variants within the respective series, allowing a completely personalised guitar to be made on request.
The Paoletti Alfa Loft is not only visually impressive across the board, but also delivers a great sound for all genres!

The bolt-on roasted maple neck in a medium 'C' profile, which is complemented by the ebony fingerboard with a 12" radius, ensures a pleasant yet precise playing feel. The combination of 22 frets, classic 25.5" scale and high-quality bone nut offers a familiar playing base with modern performance. High-quality Schaller Deluxe tuners and the Paoletti OEM tremolo ensure reliable tuning stability and flexible expression options for all styles from Blues to rock. The highlight of this guitar is the chestnut body, which is recycled from old wine barrels. This processing is unique and makes every Paoletti guitar a real pleasure for hands and ears!

Paoletti Wooden Pickup
The sound of this Alfa Loft model is impressive with its versatile P90/single-coil/single-coil configuration. The Wooden P-90 on the bridge delivers the typical transparent charm with a raw character, while the two single coils on the neck and in the middle provide defined clean and crunch sounds. Controlled via a 5-way switch as well as volume and two tone controls, the instrument offers a wide sound spectrum that is ideal for everything from classic Strat sounds to striking, assertive rock tones.
About Paoletti Guitars
Paoletti Guitars is an Italian custom guitar maker that specialises in handcrafted instruments made from high-quality chestnut wood, which is often obtained from historic wine barrels. Each instrument is traditionally handcrafted and combines a special look with a unique character.
A central feature of the brand is the extensive custom concept: almost all components can be individually specified on request. From body shapeand series (Wine, Loft or Lounge) to neck and fingerboard options (e.g. individual inlays) to pickups, Hardware and Finish (color-over-color options to individual graphics), the specifications of the instrument can be freely decided.
The custom concept from Paoletti Guitars
Both classic and unusual combinations can be realised, including different pickup configurations (e.g. SSS, HSS, P90 setups), different bridge systems or individual colour and ageing options with multi-layered finishes. Even details such as fingerboard inlays, tuners or pickguard materials can be customised.
Each Paoletti is therefore not just a Custom Shop instrument, but an individual one-off. The models available in the store are also based on this configuration concept and represent specific configurations within the respective series.
