Saito S-622CS HSS Bumble Bee Guitar

Saito S-622CS HSS combines classic design with modern materialization and offers great playability with versatile tones. The guitar has a two-piece alder body with hard maple neck and an Indian rosewood fretboard. The detachable neck joint with aluminum plate is a Saito Guitars specialty. The guitar weighs approx. 3,2 kilos, making it very easy to handle.

This model features the manufacturer’s own, handwound Saytone Growl single coils and a Saytone Bore Up humbucker. The 5-way blade switch offers plenty of tonal options and the humbucker coils can be split with a push-push tone pot. Growl has gain that’s easy to drive, crunchy and cutting tone and thick attack with a pick. The Bore Up is a humbucker for high gain, with increased power and punchy midrange, while maintaining great note separation.

This S-622CS also has Gotoh locking tuners and Gotoh 510 tremolo bridge for accurate tuning, smooth action and great sustain. The fretboard has a comfortable compound radius and the neck’s C-profile suits most players with ease. The fretboard has 22 medium jumbo frets, Luminlay side markers and white pearl dot inlays.

The sleek look of the Saito S-622CS is completed by an attractive Bumble Bee color, 3-ply black pickguard and thin matte urethane lacquer with closed pore finish.

All Saito Guitars instruments are crafted in Japan, using extremely precise working methods and carefully selected tonewoods and premium parts. Saito guitars are versatile tools with simple and functional beauty for demanding players.
