PATINA PS-7 HSS Relic Purple Electric Guitar
The PATINA PS-7 HSS Relic Purple combines classic double-cutaway versatility with the character of a guitar that already looks well played. Its factory-aged nitrocellulose finish features convincing wear and lacquer checking, delivering vintage-inspired looks without the worry of putting the first mark on it.
Two custom handwound Alnico V single-coils provide shimmer and clarity through the neck and middle positions, while the bridge humbucker adds the muscle needed for heavier rhythm and lead tones. From sparkling cleans to gritty rock sounds, the PS-7 remains clear and responsive.
Everything this guitar needs. Nothing it doesn’t. Vintage soul. Modern value.
Vintage Character in a Distinctive Finish
The relic Purple nitrocellulose finish gives the PS-7 the appearance of an instrument that has spent years on stages and in studios. Its combination of bold colour, checking and natural-looking wear makes it stand out without losing its vintage character.
Underneath the finish, a lightweight paulownia body keeps the guitar comfortable during long rehearsals, recording sessions and gigs.
Versatile HSS Pickup Configuration
The custom handwound Alnico V pickup set gives the PS-7 an impressive tonal range. The neck and middle single-coils deliver glassy cleans, blues warmth and crisp rhythm sounds, while the bridge humbucker adds power and punch for rock, alternative and higher-gain playing.
Alpha pots and a familiar one-volume, two-tone control layout make it easy to shape your sound without unnecessary complication.
A Neck That Feels Played In
A quarter-sawn roasted maple neck with a smooth satin finish provides an immediately comfortable feel. The Modern C profile is familiar without being overly chunky, while the rosewood fingerboard and 13.75-inch radius provide plenty of room for chords, bends and lead playing.
Its 22 jumbo stainless steel frets feature rounded edges for added comfort and are designed to remain smooth while resisting wear for years. Luminescent side dots also help you stay oriented when stage lighting is low.
Modern Hardware for Everyday Reliability
Chrome locking tuners with a precise 1:19 ratio make string changes quicker and help support stable tuning. The tremolo bridge lets you add expressive pitch movement, while the bone nut and double-action truss rod contribute to a dependable, adjustable setup.
