Fifty6

Identity

The Hartwood Fifty6 captures the unmistakable energy of classic rock guitars while offering the versatility and reliability modern players expect. Chrome-covered humbuckers deliver warmth, bite, and powerful midrange character, while push-pull coil splitting opens up brighter, more articulate textures when needed. The Fifty6 keeps things focused and direct, whether through the raw simplicity of its single-pickup configuration or the expanded tonal range of dual humbucker models. Certain variants also feature Hartwood’s Vibe-Roller vibrato system, allowing for expressive pitch movement with enhanced tuning stability. Across the range, the Fifty6 feels bold, dynamic, and unapologetically built for players who want their guitar to respond with attitude.

Feel

In the hands, the Fifty6 feels fast, comfortable, and built to keep up with energetic playing styles. Its lightweight double cutaway body offers effortless upper fret access, while the ergonomic C-shaped neck sits naturally in the hand for smooth movement across the fretboard. Medium jumbo frets and a thermally treated maple fingerboard create a responsive playing surface that feels equally suited to rhythm work, lead lines, and aggressive riffing. Locking tuners, a GraphTech NuBone nut, and Tune-O-Matic hardware provide dependable stability and sustain, while Vibe-Roller-equipped models add fluid vibrato action without interrupting the flow of your playing. Every detail is designed to feel immediate, expressive, and ready for long sessions on stage or in the studio.
