Original 6-String Electric Guitar Design

The AURORA 6 is an original modern double-cut electric guitar created for players who want boutique aesthetics, aggressive playability, and reliable stage-ready hardware. Its sculpted body shape, elongated horn geometry, deep comfort bevels, and carved top profile give it a distinctive identity while avoiding direct imitation of protected guitar silhouettes.

The design combines a premium exotic top, ergonomic body contouring, a fast-access neck joint, and a Wilkinson-based hardware platform for dependable tuning, strong sustain, and versatile tone.

Wilkinson currently offers a wide range of guitar hardware including bridges, tuning machines, pickups, hardtails, vibratos, and related parts through its direct hardware platform and distributors. Their R Series humbuckers are positioned for rock and blues tones while retaining clarity and harmonic content.

Body Design

Original Sculpted Body Shape

The AURORA 6 uses an original asymmetric double-cut body shape with flowing extended horns, a narrowed waist, and carved contouring around the upper and lower bouts. The design is intentionally different from common Strat, Tele, Les Paul, SG, PRS, Superstrat, Jazzmaster, Explorer, or offset-style body outlines.

The AURORA 6 body is designed with a carved boutique profile, giving the instrument a refined yet aggressive look. Its extended upper horn improves balance, while the deep lower cutaway allows clean access to the highest frets. The contoured back and softened bevels make it comfortable for long sessions on stage, in studio, or at home.

Neck and Playability

Neck Construction

The preferred premium version uses a neck-through construction, giving the guitar excellent sustain, stable resonance, and smooth upper-fret access. A set-neck version can also be offered for easier production and cost control.

Playability Profile

The AURORA 6 is designed for fast modern playing without sacrificing comfort for rhythm work. The slim C neck, compound radius fingerboard, and 24-fret layout make it suitable for rock, metal, fusion, worship, blues, and technical lead playing.

Wilkinson Pickup System

Recommended setup: Wilkinson HH configuration with a warm neck humbucker and a higher-output bridge humbucker.

Wilkinson’s R Series humbuckers are described by Wilkinson Direct as being suited for rock and blues-driven tones with clarity and harmonic content.

The AURORA 6 is powered by a Wilkinson humbucker set, giving the guitar a strong, clear, and versatile voice. The bridge pickup delivers articulate attack and tight low-end response, while the neck pickup provides smooth sustain and expressive warmth. With an optional push-pull coil split, players can access brighter tones without losing the power of the dual-humbucker platform.
