Product Description
In Shabat’s own words, the Bobcat is an “ultra-lightweight, easy‑playing instrument” that “delivers incredible tones for hard rock, indie, pop, country and more” — and we’re very much on board with that! With its cool offset silhouette, short 24” scale, premium hardware and top-tier electronics, this is a guitar that inspires confidence every time you pick it up. Handcrafted in Los Angeles by a small team of highly experienced luthiers, the attention to detail and overall build quality here is simply outstanding.
Lollar Mustang pickups
At the heart of this superb axe is a pair of Lollar Mustang pickups, voiced to capture the magic of the very best mid‑’60s examples from when the model first made its mark. Chiming, articulate and beautifully balanced across all positions, they offer enhanced clarity and touch sensitivity — with the classic Mustang out‑of‑phase setting sounding particularly glorious.
About Shabat Guitars
Shabat Guitars was founded by Avishay ‘Avi’ Shabat, a graduate of the prestigious Algranti School of Lutherie. After years spent repairing guitars professionally and working alongside a respected boutique builder, Avi set out to create instruments that honour the classic designs we all know and love — while subtly addressing the shortcomings that often come with vintage gear.
Built from carefully selected, well‑seasoned tonewoods and finished in thin nitrocellulose lacquer, Shabat guitars are designed to resonate freely and age beautifully over time. Each model is fitted with premium hardware and high-end electronics, including exclusive Lollar pickups, ensuring exceptional tone, feel and reliability straight out of the case.
Features
- Alder body: Delivers punchy, focused midrange with a clear, detailed top end, all wrapped up in a comfortably balanced weight that’s ideal for long rehearsals and extended gigs.
- Hard Maple neck with Rosewood fingerboard: A classic tonewood pairing that blends snap and stability with a smooth, forgiving playing feel, while the Rosewood board adds warmth and sweetness to the note attack.
- Modern “C” neck profile: Super comfortable and immediately familiar in the hand, this profile strikes the perfect balance between vintage vibe and modern playability — great for both chords and lead work.
- Gotoh hardtail bridge: Ensures rock-solid tuning stability, accurate intonation across the neck and plenty of sustain, making it a reliable choice for studio sessions and live performance alike.
- Lollar Mustang pickups: Vintage-voiced and beautifully articulate, these single-coils deliver chiming cleans, rich midrange character and excellent touch sensitivity, with the unmistakable sparkle and bite that made the originals so iconic.
- Kluson tuners: Hold pitch like a champ while adding that timeless, vintage-correct aesthetic to the headstock.
- Included hardshell case: Supplied with a premium hardshell case to keep your guitar safe and protected whether you’re heading to a gig, the studio or rehearsals.
