Novo Voltur Firebird Burst 2021 BRUGT

The Voltur is one of Novo’s newer offset solidbodies, but already a classic for the brand. This particular version sits in that “Tele meets Firebird” space visually, with a long, slightly angular outline, a big pickguard, and a simple control layout. It is finished in Firebird Burst, showing plenty of grain through the top and a factory-aged look with checking, edge wear, and hardware patina.

Pickup-wise, it’s a Lollar Staple P-90 in the neck and Fralin Unbucker in the bridge, with handy coil tap on the control plate, making the most of this pickup. The short Tele-style bridge keeps the feel immediate, familiar and spanky, and the guitar is very light at only 3000g.

The chunky maple neck has a solid handful without feeling unwieldy, and the frets are like new. It includes the hardshell case, plus some case candy and a spare black pickguard.
