Veillette Guitars Announces the Lyric​

Veillette Guitars Announces the Lyric​

A guitar intended for jazz playing and gigging, set on a smaller profile for comfort and playability.


Veillette Guitars, based in Woodstock, NY, introduces the Lyric guitar. Veilette's vision was to embody the wonderful elements of those big jazz guitars into a smaller profile that offers extreme playability, comfort, weight, balance and perfect intonation throughout its entire neck. The single pickup is voiced to ensure a wide dynamic range and amplify every subtle nuance of the player.

Intended for jazz players as a possible replacement for their go-to gigging and recording instrument, it has received positive response from guitarists who sing, write and perform live who have declared it a wonderful accompanying guitar for when they wish to go a step beyond their typical acoustic approach.
