The Orion Custom isn’t just an instrument; it’s a work of art crafted for guitarists who demand excellence. Here’s why it deserves a spot in your collection:

Superior Tone woods: The blend of Black Limba and 5A Flame Ash gives you rich, resonant tones with exceptional sustain. Every note you play will sound full and vibrant, making your music truly stand out.

Unmatched Playability: With a flame maple neck and roasted flame maple fingerboard, the Orion offers a smooth, fast-playing experience. The modern asymmetrical C-D neck profile is designed for optimal comfort, reducing hand fatigue during those long jam sessions.

Precision Hardware: Featuring premium components like the Hipshot Contour tremolo and Grip-Lok tuners, the Orion ensures rock-solid tuning stability and effortless playability. You can focus entirely on your performance without worrying about your guitar staying in tune.

Versatile Electronics: The Bareknuckle Aftermath pickups provide a versatile range of tones, from warm cleans to aggressive leads. The intuitive control layout allows for precise sound shaping, making it perfect for any genre you want to explore.

Durability and Quality: With 24 jumbo stainless-steel frets and a custom 2-way truss rod, the Orion is built to last. The high gloss Black Hole Burst finish not only looks stunning but also protects your guitar for years to come.

Attention to Detail: From the black mother-of-pearl inlays to the Luminlay glow-in-the-dark side dots, every detail of the Orion is designed with the player in mind. It combines aesthetic appeal with functional excellence, ensuring you get the best of both worlds.

Craftsmanship/ Playability/ Tone of the highest level

I bought this guitar after seeing it on xguitars on Instagram . As I scrolled down the page of many guitars made by Luthiers from around the world I saw this guitar, the Orion Black Hole Burst. I was literally blown away at its stunning looks . I had to investigate further. After going on this website and watching the very well produced video review of the guitar, I bought it . I planned on calling Jesse the next day to confirm purchase, but he called me first… which I was impressed by. We talked for almost an hour about the guitar, its stages of creation, and our motivations and inspirations that fuel our passion for all things guitar. He even sent me pictures of the guitar in its different stages during the build process. This guitar is masterfully built, plays incredibly well, and the tones I get out of it are amazing. This guitar sits proudly among the other high end guitars in my collection. I highly recommend anyone considering buying a top of the line custom guitar to consider Soleil Custom Guitars. Your investment will be well worth it.
