V-Hawk Elite from Fernandes

One of the things that jumps out at you when first setting eyes upon the V-Hawk Elite is the combination of post-modern contours and the somewhat eerie fluorescent finish – this guitar certainly has points of difference.

Actually Fernandes call the finish “Chameleon” as the colors change as you change the viewing angle.

V-Hawk Elite head and body

Fernandes say that this guitar was inspired by the North American bird of pray, and they have a trademark on the shape.

They are made in Japan with an ultra-thin neck, EMG 81 pickups, Gotoh tremolo and tuners, a smooth heel joint and a lower body cutaway to provide full access to higher frets – this is an instrument designed for lead guitarists.
