Maranello
Double cutaway and colours that cover. This is the Genesis where the wood disappears under the finish — and the only one with thirteen of them to look at.

- Fucsia
- Gesso
- Cedro

13 finishes available — and this is not a closed list
What sets it apart
Thirteen finishes, and the wood stays hidden
The only model in the house where the colour covers instead of passing through. Rosso corsa as standard; then fuchsia, acid green, white, metallics, hydro-dipped swirls. Here the finish is not there to show off a well-chosen board — it is there to be seen from the back of the room.
Schaller Lockmeister bridge
A Floyd Rose built under licence in Germany, with locking saddles and a locking nut. Dive a full octave and come back in tune. Available in black, nickel, gold, chrome and ruthenium, matched to the tuners.
Push-push on the volume
Press once and the humbucker splits, press again and it comes back whole. Nothing to pull, nothing to turn: one hand, while the other keeps playing.
Photographs of Maranello
Rosso corsa
Twelve seconds with someone playing it.
This is not a pan across a still instrument: it is the standard finish under the light of an ordinary room, with a hand working the fretboard. A solid red has no board to show off — it has a surface that reflects, and you only see it when it moves.

The switch
What it sounds like, in every position.
As standard
Neck
Neck + bridge
Bridge
Neck coil split
The first push-pull leaves the neck humbucker running on one coil: it brightens up without losing body, and in the middle position it moves close to the sound of two single-coils.
Neck
Neck + bridge
Bridge
Bridge coil split
The second push-pull does the same at the bridge, where it is needed more often: the attack stays, the humbucker’s compression does not.
Neck
Neck + bridge
Bridge
Both coils split
With both push-pulls up the instrument becomes a two single-coil guitar, and the middle position is the furthest it gets from where it started.

Hear it
Here you can hear it: the same guitar as the band above, in a room with the amp switched on. This is where Rosso corsa, the Floyd Rose and the stainless steel frets stop being lines in a table.
And now
Carry on building it.
The green lines above are yours to decide. In the Custom Shop you pick them one by one, and at the end it is the luthier who writes back, not a form.
