Carneglia Custom Shop Sublime Electric Guitar - "Obsidian"

Carneglia Custom Shop Sublime “Obsidian” emerges as a statement of refined aggression — a perfect storm of precision engineering, aesthetic restraint, and sonic depth. It’s the vision of Daniel Carneglia distilled into a pure form: tone, feel, and artistry unified under black glass and steel.

Carved from South American Mahogany and topped with Curly Maple featuring Faux Binding, the body resonates with nuanced warmth and harmonic complexity. The mahogany core grounds every note in organic sustain, while the figured maple top sharpens attack and focus. Finished in a sleek Gloss Black Thin Polyurethane on top and a Satin Black Thin Polyurethane on the back, the Obsidian shimmers with quiet menace — a contrast of sheen and shadow that hints at the power beneath its surface.

A South American Mahogany neck flows seamlessly from the body, delivering a fast, stable feel that encourages expressive precision. The Brazilian Rosewood fretboard, framed by Flame Maple binding and inlaid with Mother of Pearl dots, adds both elegance and smooth playability. With 22 Jescar 47104 stainless steel frets, a TUSQ nut, and a 25.5” scale length, the neck invites fluid runs and rich bends, maintaining clarity across every register.

Hardware is all about endurance and performance. A Hipshot Tremolo bridge ensures responsive control and perfect return-to-pitch stability, matched with Hipshot Locking Open-Gear tuners for effortless tuning precision. Black metal knobs complete the stealth aesthetic, offering tight, tactile control at your fingertips.

Powering the tone are dual DiMarzio PAF Masters — bridge and neck — an articulate, vintage-voiced pairing that captures both air and heft. The result is a spectrum that moves gracefully from glassy cleans to textured overdrive, all filtered through CTS Superpots, a Bumblebee capacitor, and Switchcraft components for uncompromising signal integrity. Whether clean or grimy, every nuance of your playing translates with pure intention.

Delivered with a Carneglia hardshell case and Certificate of Authenticity, the Sublime "Obsidian" stands as more than an instrument — it’s an heirloom of modern tonecraft. Built for the discerning player who demands both sophistication and soul, it’s where dark elegance meets Carneglia’s relentless pursuit of perfection.

Complete with a Carneglia hardshell case and official Certificate of Authenticity, the Sublime "Obsidian" is not just an instrument — it’s a declaration of intent. Designed for those who play with conviction, it embodies the intersection of artistry, aggression, and absolute sonic mastery.
