PATINA PT-6 Olympic White Relic Electric Guitar
The PATINA PT-6 Olympic White Relic delivers classic single-cutaway bite with years of vintage character already applied. Its aged nitrocellulose finish features convincing wear, checking and fading, giving the guitar the appearance of an instrument with a few rock and roll stories behind it.
Two custom handwound Alnico V single-coil pickups provide the twang, snap and cut this guitar shape is known for. Clean country lines sound clear and lively, while blues, indie and driven rock tones retain their definition without becoming thin or harsh.
Everything this guitar needs. Nothing it doesn’t. Vintage soul. Modern value.
Vintage Wear from Day One
The relic Olympic White nitrocellulose finish recreates the checking, fading and wear that would naturally develop through years of playing. It offers the character of a road-worn instrument without the worry of putting the first mark on a flawless new guitar.
Beneath the finish, a paulownia body keeps the PT-6 comfortably lightweight for rehearsals, recording sessions and long performances.
Classic Single-Coil Bite
The custom handwound Alnico V pickups deliver a responsive sound with plenty of bite and definition. The bridge pickup provides sharp attack and familiar single-cutaway twang, while the neck position offers a warmer voice for blues, rhythm work and smoother lead tones.
A straightforward one-volume, one-tone control layout keeps adjustments quick and intuitive.
Comfortable from the First Chord
The quarter-sawn roasted maple neck has a smooth satin finish that feels comfortably broken-in from day one. Its Modern C profile provides a familiar shape that suits a broad range of players and musical styles.
A rosewood fingerboard, 13.75-inch radius and 22 jumbo stainless steel frets make chords, bends and lead playing feel smooth and controlled. Rounded fret edges improve comfort, while the durable stainless steel construction is designed to resist wear for years. Luminescent side dots provide added visibility when stage lighting drops.
Stable, Practical Hardware
The fixed bridge provides a solid platform for tuning stability, sustain and easy maintenance. Chrome locking tuners with a precise 1:19 ratio make string changes quicker and help keep the guitar in tune through bends and energetic performances.
A bone nut and double-action truss rod complete a practical setup built for regular playing.
