An original Nick Page design! A finely cut body shape with Florentine cutaway, a slotted peghead, and bindings made of cream-colored celluloid gives the Maybach Convair its unmistakable retro look. Unique and artfully chiseled paisley patterns are eye-catchers that can be found on the pickguard and cover plates of the electronics cavities.
WITH ITS THRO BACK APPEARANCE, THE MAYBACH CONVAIR LOOKS LIKE A DESIGN FROM THE 50s… NICK PAGE, ONE OF THE MOST CREATIVE LUTHIERS AND DESIGNERS, BEST FRIEND, AND MASTER BUILDER AT MAYBACH GUITARS, CREATED THE DESIGN OF THIS OUTSTANDING GUITAR.
The MAYBACH® Convair
A two-piece mahogany body with an arched, solid maple top are the foundation for the earthy and fat sounds, which get their characteristic touch from the glued-in mahogany neck and an ebony fingerboard.
