Pottstown, PA (September 16, 2019) -- Balaguer Guitars have re-imagined their Hyperion model and have also added the new Hyperion T Standard to the line-up. They've sculpted the heel and cutaway to give a more ergonomic feel, made the body slightly thicker, changed the headstock to a reverse 6-inline, and have changed the pickguard shape to bring this model to the modern forefront. The Hyperion Standard boasts two Balaguer Humbuckers, while the Hyperion T showcases a more classic pairing with a singlecoil in the bridge position. Whether you play rock, metal, or country the new Hyperion Standard and Hyperion T Standard will feel right at home.
