SPIRA S-457 PTS 7-String Multiscale Electric Guitar, Blue Green Burst

The Spira S-457 is a premium multiscale seven string electric guitar built for players who demand outstanding extended range performance, striking aesthetics and exceptional tonal clarity. Designed for modern guitarists exploring heavy riffs, technical solos and low tunings, it delivers a refined blend of power, precision and playability.

Premium Woods and Exceptional Craftsmanship

The S-457 combines a roasted poplar body with a stunning spalted poplar top, creating a resonant, lightweight instrument with distinctive visual appeal. Its Canadian roasted maple neck and roasted maple fretboard provide:

Multiscale Design for Superior Tone and Feel

This model features a multiscale (fanned fret) construction, where each string has its own optimised scale length. This advanced design offers several key advantages:

• Longer bass-side scale for tighter, more defined low end
• Shorter treble-side scale for smoother bends and expressive lead playing
• More balanced string tension across the neck
• Enhanced intonation and clarity, especially in lower tunings

The multiscale layout makes the S-457 exceptionally comfortable to play while improving accuracy and tonal balance across all strings.
