The Aristides 070 is the model that launched the company's Standard Series, a seven-string built from its Novacore composite material.
Watch
Why it matters
Aristides builds from a composite rather than timber, which removes the usual wood-by-wood variation and produces very consistent instruments. The 070 is the origin point for the shape the company now applies across several models, and it is offered in seven-string form. That makes it a specialist choice, compared against other composite and custom builders rather than mainstream production guitars.
Note
The signature Novacore platform.
