The Severin Rogue: Modern Design meets Classic Craftsmanship

The Severin Rogue is the evolution of the modern electric guitar. Designed for players who demand ergonomic comfort without sacrificing a bold, “Metal” aesthetic, the Rogue combines premium materials with innovative hardware.

Precision Neck Construction

The neck is the heart of any guitar. We’ve over-engineered the Rogue’s neck to ensure it stays straight, plays fast, and feels like home.

  • 5-Piece Laminated Design

    By laminating wood along the grain, we’ve created a neck that is significantly more resistant to warping and breakage than single-piece designs. It’s as stable as it is striking.

  • 1962 “C” Profile & 12″ Radius

    We’ve paired the iconic feel of a ’62 Strat-style neck with a flatter 12-inch rosewood fretboard-the “sweet spot” for comfortable chording and effortless string bends.

  • Angled Headstock with Volute

    Our 10-12 degree headstock angle provides perfect string tension without the need for messy string trees. To ensure maximum strength at this critical point, we’ve added a volute-extra wooden reinforcement that adds durability without affecting your playing.

  • High-Performance Frets

    We use Jescar Stainless Steel frets (Medium size). They are virtually immune to wear, and we meticulously polish the ends to prevent “fret sprout,” ensuring a smooth ride up and down the neck.

Innovation in Every Detail

We believe the small things make the biggest difference during a gig or a session.

  • Magnetic Access Plates

    Say goodbye to lost screws. Both the truss rod and the shielded control cavities feature magnetic “pop-up” access, making adjustments quick and painless.

  • Dual-Action Truss Rod

    Because wood reacts to temperature and humidity, our dual-action rod allows for precise compensation for both “forward” and “back” bow.

  • Hipshot Hardware

    Equipped with Grip-Lock Open Gear tuners for lightning-fast string changes and a Brass String-Through Bridge for massive sustain and easy intonation.

  • Tusq XL Nut

    Impregnated with Teflon, these nuts allow strings to glide during heavy bends-no graphite or “nut lube” required.

Body & Ergonomics

The Rogue body is designed for the human form.

  • Premium Tonewoods

    Typically crafted from Sapele Mahogany with a thick 3/8″ figured top, we select our wood based on the final color palette to ensure the grain and stain react perfectly.

  • Player-Centric Carves

    Featuring a deep belly carve, a large forearm bevel, and sculpted access to the higher frets. We use “faux binding” (natural wood edges) to highlight the beauty of the carved top.

  • Custom Pickup Rings

    Our proprietary two-ply wooden pickup rings are built for strength-a unique Severin feature you won’t find on other custom builds.

Electronics & Tone

  • Pro-Grade Components

    Featuring CTS 500k pots, Orange Drop capacitors, and a Puretone output jack with dual contact points for a rock-solid cable connection. Will work with 90-degree connectors.

  • The Super Switch

    Our 5-way Super Switch allows versatile wiring configurations, giving you a massive tonal palette from a single instrument.

  • Custom Pickup Options

    Whether it’s the high-output Seymour Duncan Black Winters, the classic JB/Jazz set, or DiMarzio favorites, we voice each Rogue to match its character. *Want something specific? We are happy to swap pickups to meet your signature sound.

  • Strings

    Every model is setup with D’Addario XL’s (.10 – .46).

Protection & Security

  • Grover Strap-locks

    We ship every Rogue with Grover locks for total security. We even upgrade the factory screws to longer, stainless steel versions for a “never-fail” grip.
