Couldn't load pickup availability
The Carneglia Custom Shop Sublime “Diablo” is crafted for players who value feel, tone, and precision above all. Designed by Daniel Carneglia, the Diablo combines refined construction with expressive playability, delivering a responsive instrument that connects directly to the hands and ears of the player.
Built from Spanish Cedar for both body and neck, the guitar resonates with a rich midrange presence and smooth sustain. Its lightweight structure enhances natural resonance and clarity, while maintaining the punch needed for articulate dynamics. The Translucent Red Burst Gloss top shows off the wood’s grain beneath a vivid, glassy surface, contrasted by a Black Lambo Matte back that gives the instrument a clean, modern edge.
The Brazilian Rosewood fretboard adds warmth and definition, paired with Brass Ring with Red Dot Inlays for a unique visual touch. Jescar 47104 Stainless Steel frets provide a fast, consistent feel under the fingers, and the classic 24.562" scale keeps tension balanced across the strings. With a hand‑cut TUSQ nut, setup and tuning remain smooth and stable, whether in the studio or on stage.
Every piece of hardware is chosen for tone and playability. The Gold Hipshot Hardtail String‑Through bridge delivers solid transfer and sustain, while Gold Hipshot Locking Tuners keep tuning rock solid through bends and vibrato. Matching Gold control knobs round out the look with clean style and smooth feel.
A matched pair of DiMarzio PAF Masters brings the Diablo’s voice to life — open, dynamic, and responsive to pick attack. They capture that vintage PAF sweetness with added note clarity and modern balance. Combined with CTS Superpots (550k), a Bumblebee capacitor, and Switchcraft wiring, the circuit stays pure and touch‑sensitive.
Delivered in a Carneglia Hardshell Case with a Certificate of Authenticity, the Sublime Diablo stands as the latest expression of Carneglia’s approach to tone and build — a guitar that rewards the player with balance, resonance, and personality in every note.

Only the highest quality components, including potentiometers (CTS, VIPots) and capacitors (Sprague, Luxe), each of which we measure individually before installation. When it comes to pickups, we choose to work exclusively with boutique brands that personally craft each one, embodying the same handcrafted spirit that defines our instruments.

From oil finishes to custom colors and varnishes, we work closely with our clients to select an option that elevates the beauty and tone of their guitar. Our finishes include nitrocellulose lacquer, polyester, metallic colors, translucent and solid options in both satin and gloss, and various levels of relicing.
