Double R Guitars The Pelham Reserve

Double R Guitars – The Pelham Reserve

The Pelham Reserve is our tribute to timeless tone and style, blending vintage character with modern playability. Built with a solid alder body and finished in an antique Pelham Blue nitrocellulose lacquer, this guitar carries a subtle light relic treatment for an authentic, played-in feel.

The neck is an AllParts TRF-22 maple with a smooth rosewood fretboard, a 12" radius, and 22 frets — designed for comfort and versatility whether you’re chasing vintage twang or modern bends.

For electronics, we’ve paired a set of Seymour Duncan Vintage Broadcaster pickups with premium CTS pots, a 3-way Oak Grigsby switch, and a Switchcraft Electrosocket jack, delivering classic Tele-style bite with boutique reliability.

Hardware includes a Wilkinson vintage-style bridge and Gotoh vintage-style locking tuners, combining period-correct looks with rock-solid tuning stability.

The Pelham Reserve is a guitar that looks like it came out of the golden age of electrics but plays like it was built for today.
