Poison

Merida Extrema Poison Electric Acoustic Guitar w/ Cutaway inc Gig Bag

It happens a few times in the life of a musician to come across an instrument that is able to bewitch him from the first moment.

This is undoubtedly what happens in the presence of the Merida Extrema Poison, the guitar that can be considered to all intents and purposes the flagship of the Eternal series.

From the first glance, the beauty of the woods, the veins and shades of the Santos rosewood on the back and sides are simply mesmerising, and the elegance of the lines and inlays on the headstock, fingerboard and body generate a mix of contrasting emotions: on the one hand the overwhelming desire to at least touch this beauty to make sure that it is absolutely real, and on the other hand the fear of being able to somehow affect this sort of aura that surrounds a unique piece of art, and that it would be completely reductive to consider just a guitar.

We are in fact facing a jewel that even the most expert carver would not struggle to define a masterpiece.

And if, in addition to simply observing, you give in to the temptation to play even a few notes on this wonder, well … that’s it, you can’t go back, the sound is powerful, precise, rich in harmonics, with trebles bright and deep basses, it can easily hold a candle to any guitar.

The neck is fast, smooth, precise and thanks to the double bevels on the body, the playing experience is so comfortable that it is easy to quickly forget that we are playing on a jumbo-sized.

The flute sound ports on the armrest give the guitarist a perfect control over the performance, while the Justpro amplification system guarantees a fidelity of reproduction and a clarity of sound that is difficult to achieve.

It goes without saying that Poison makes use of all the constructive innovations introduced by Merida: 0.3mm lacquer process technology, carbon fiber truss rod technology, Omega laminate on the bridge and the fretboard and high precision Merida custom tuning machines.

Finally, an all solid body, with AAA solid Engelmann spruce on top and Santos Rosewood on the back and sides, is the guarantee of an exceptional sound.

The Merida Extrema Poison can be actually considered the dream of every guitarist.
