Product Description

The Airline Newport takes a contemporary twist on a rare vintage gem made by Supro in the mid-20th century. It captures the art deco essence of the original – a sharp and flowing design with real panache.

Undeniable style

No other guitar comes close to the alternative aura of the Newport. The dramatic body contours, wild upper horn, in-line controls, pinstripe pickguard and quarter oval inlays combine to form a truly striking image. The Bigsby tailpiece grants access to waves of classic vibrato whilst adding to the stunning visuals.

Humbuckers and piezo

This wildly versatile guitar boasts incredible onboard tone customisation thanks to two mini humbuckers, known for their fiery, snarling tone as well as a piezo acoustic bridge pickup. That means you get the PA acoustic sound with the playing feel of a well-constructed working player's electric guitar. Add to that dedicated set of three volume and three tone controls, plus a five-way switch to blend to taste, and you've got a real powerhouse of sonic capabilities.

Modern build quality, retro design

Old Coronados were unfortunately unreliable, but this new build is equipped with quality hardware, a classic Bigsby tailpiece for all your super-smooth vibrato needs, and Grover-style tuners. The chambered mahogany body is nice and lightweight, and it ages well!
