The Rapier 33 electric guitar brings together distinctive vintage-inspired styling, versatile electronics and modern playability. With its unique three-pickup configuration and additional switching options, the Rapier 33 gives players an extensive range of tones suitable for everything from clean and articulate sounds to warmer, fuller rock tones.
 
Built with an Okoume body, Canadian hard maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, the Rapier 33 offers a comfortable playing feel with a balanced tonal response. Its 25.5" / 648 mm scale length, 23 Medium Jumbo frets including a zero fret, and bone nut provide a familiar and responsive playing experience.
Three Alan Entwistle low-noise EWR64 pickups form the heart of the Rapier 33. A 3-way pickup selector is complemented by a dedicated middle pickup control, allowing the middle pickup to be introduced for additional tonal combinations. A separate Bass-Cut switch provides further sound shaping for brighter, more defined tones.
 
The HiLo Vibrato bridge adds smooth, expressive pitch modulation, while Wilkinson sealed tuners provide reliable and precise tuning. Premium Elixir 09–42 coated strings complete the setup for a smooth feel and extended string life.
 
With its distinctive looks, three-pickup versatility and flexible switching system, the Rapier 33 is an excellent choice for guitarists who want vintage character with a wider tonal palette and practical modern features.
