FROM THE LEGENDARY GARY LEVINSON...
THE BLADE 'DELTA STANDARD'
Introducing the ‘Delta Standard' from the esteemed ‘Blade’ guitars, founded by industry icon Gary Levinson.
In 1987 Mr Levinson set forth to create his own range of guitars focussing on the highest integrity build, alongside the most innovative developments. Later that year, Blade guitars were unveiled to expectant eyes and ears at the Tokyo Music Show, and the rest, as they say…is history.
Fast forward to the present day, and the results of Gary’s unwavering commitment to building the finest quality guitars, full of revolutionary innovations are plain to see in guitars such as this, the Blade Delta Standard. The Delta Standard features the showstopping looks, versatile pickups, Blade's patented Adjustable Tension Guide (ATG), and other innovations such as the ‘EZ Access Neck Rod’ for quick and simple access to the truss rod.
This is a truly professional guitar, for the guitarist who seeks killer tones, show-stopping looks and flawless playability, but doesn't want to break the bank! The Delta Standard has modern features, functionalities and a gorgeous aesthetic, but with a classic vibe that feels inexplicably familiar when you pick up this spectacular guitar. The Delta Standard from Blade is a definitive manifestation of comfort enhancing ergonomics, perfect balance and unmatched tone.
A Sleek, Curvacious Body, Exquisitely Finished
SHOWSTOPPING LOOKSThe Delta Standard's body is unquestionably stunning, wrapped in slender curves and sleek routing for maximum comfort. The body is made from North American Alder, a popular choice of wood, used still to this day by some of the most revered manufacturers in the world today.
The use of North American Alder offers many advantages, both sonically and otherwise. Firstly, the use of Alder wood makes for a bold, clear and fully-voiced sound, with prominent mid’s and full-bodied lows. Secondly, Alder bodied guitars often weigh less than guitars made of, say, mahogany. Good news for those guitarists who often find themselves performing prolonged sets and for those long, hard days in the studio.
The fingerboard is made from maple, which is a perfect choice of wood for the Delta Standard due to it producing a brighter tone which really accentuates the high-end tonalities, well suited to some screaming blues licks! The neck itself is beautifully made and sit’s in the fretting hand with a brilliantly natural, comfortable feel.
Adjustable Tension Guide
UNMATCHED SUSTAINThe Delta Standard is packing some truly revolutionary technology. For example, the ‘Adjustable Tension Guide’ (ATG), this ATG technology, is unique to Blade guitars. It comprises of a small, spring loaded, height adjustable string tree which sits between the 1st and 2nd strings. This feature allows tension adjustment to compensate for the difference between various string gauges.
Furthermore, its asymmetric shape places slightly greater pressure to the 1st string than the 2nd, this design results in incredible sustain and minimum friction eliminating the majority of detuning problems.
