  • Equipped with the LR Baggs Element Bronze undersaddle pickup system
  • Solid spruce top with layered mahogany back and sides 
  • Redesigned retro-style headstock with a straightened profile and open-gear tuners
  • Classic silhouette bridge design with upgraded bridge pins

Old-School Warmth

Built from solid spruce, the top's stained finish adds a golden, worn-in character. As the wood continues to settle and dry over time, the tone will only open up and deepen, growing richer with each year of play.

Functionality & Aesthetics

Modern guitar builds have plenty of perks, but there’s no denying the magic of a vintage instrument. The Overland Retro is our nod to that simpler time—a throwback twist on a few of our most-loved models. In a fast-moving world, it’s a reminder to slow down and enjoy the music.
