Novo Nucleus Solus H2 | Aged Pelham Blue - Black Pickguard
Fralin Pure PAF Pickups - TonePros Tune-O-Matic - Chunky 'C' Neck - German Carve
We are thrilled and immensely proud of the relationship between Peach and Novo. Our fearless leader, John, has been a devoted customer of the brand for years, amassing a significant collection of these guitars due to his genuine passion for them. For the previous few years, Novo handled all sales directly, but from 2023 we were delighted to announce that Peach would be stocking and selling these exquisite instruments exclusively in the UK. Our entire staff loves the perfect combination of retro-cool aesthetics, outstanding reliability, and innovative features that Novo guitars embody. They possess a timeless yet contemporary appearance that defies description but exudes undeniable coolness.
Moreover, once you hold one of these guitars in your hands, you'll be astounded by the unparalleled feel of the neck. It truly sets a new standard. We are thrilled to offer these guitars to customers without the need for a custom order or overwhelming choices. However, we urge you to act swiftly, as once a model is sold out, it may be unavailable for an extended period.
Novo have decided to refresh their lineup, introducing refinements and some tasty extras to their already exceptional instruments. The former Select series has evolved into the fresh Nucleus series. This series proudly features the continued presence of the Idris, Serus, Solus, and Voltur models, along with the exciting addition of the Miris model to enrich the lineup. Immerse yourself in cutting-edge hardware, inventive designs, fresh pickup configurations, and a diverse array of exquisite finishes. Today, we take great pleasure in introducing the Solus H2 model, a superb example of Novo's exciting Nucleus range.
The Novo Solus H2 boasts a distressed light finish, showcasing the beauty of its tempered pine body. The top of the guitar now features a beautiful German carve, adding a touch of elegance to the overall design. The neck, carved in a Chunky 'C' shape, is crafted from tempered maple, providing both stability and resonance. The rosewood fingerboard with a 9.5"-14" compound radius ensures a comfortable playing experience across all registers. The attention to detail extends to the rear-mounted controls and the new chopped pickguard design, enhancing the guitar's visual appeal.
The heart of the Novo Solus H2 lies in its pickups - Fralin Pure PAFs. Renowned for their exceptional tone, these pickups are a faithful recreation of the classic 50's PAF humbuckers. Crafted with real Butyrate Bobbins and all USA-Made parts, the Pure PAF is Lindy Fralin's favourite humbucker, and for good reason.
These pickups deliver a clean, clear tone with unmatched versatility and dynamics. Whether you're playing clean passages or pushing the boundaries with overdriven tones, these pickups showcase the best of what a humbucker should sound like.
The Novo Solus H2 features high-quality hardware, including a TonePros Tune-o-matic bridge and stoptail. This ensures excellent tuning stability and enhances sustain. The 24.75" scale length and 1.687" nut width contribute to a comfortable and familiar feel, making it easy for guitarists to transition to the Novo Solus H2.
Stringjoy 11-50 strings are the chosen set for this guitar, providing a balanced and responsive playing experience. The use of tempered pine for the body wood further contributes to the instrument's unique tonal characteristics, creating a resonance that adds depth and warmth to the overall sound.
Complete with a high-quality soft case, Novo have provided a secure and stylish means of transporting this fantastic instrument around.
