Aristides STX6R Light Blue

Aristides STX6R Light Blue
Serial Number: 4481
Weight: 7.94 lbs.

The Aristides STX6R in Light Blue brings a bright raw-finish color and a clean white pickguard to Aristides' one-piece Arium construction, with Bare Knuckle Polymath pickups. Arium is Aristides' own composite. The body and neck are formed as a single structure, so there's no neck joint to absorb vibration and no wood to shift with the seasons, which gives the STX6R even resonance, long sustain, and very stable playability. The raw light blue finish carries onto a matching headstock with no logo, and the raw white pickguard and chrome hardware give it a crisp, cool-toned look. It weighs 7.94 lb.

The Arium neck has a C carve (.770" at the 1st fret, .800" at the 12th) with a raw finish that feels natural and quick. The Richlite fretboard carries offset dot inlays and an STX inlay at the 12th fret, with a 12" to 16" compound radius that's comfortable for chords near the nut and flattens out for low action and wide bends up high. Twenty-four stainless steel Jescar FW57110 frets play smoothly and last for years, over a 25.5" scale with a 1.66" Graphtech TUSQ nut. A Hipshot hardtail bridge and Hipshot locking tuners keep the tuning solid, and the one-piece build gives clear access to the upper frets.

Two Bare Knuckle Polymath humbuckers deliver articulate, dynamic tone that responds to your touch. They're controlled by a volume knob and a 5-way blade selector, with a push/pull control that adds alternate voicings, so you can go from tight, saturated rhythm parts to clearer, more open textures. Whether you're a progressive rock or metal player, a modern guitarist who wants a hardtail that's as versatile as it is striking, or a collector of boutique composite instruments, the Aristides STX6R in Light Blue delivers (Serial #4481). It includes a deluxe gig bag. Order today from Brian's Guitars, your authorized Aristides dealer.
