EARTH V2
Slim-body electro-acoustic guitar
Premium hard case included
A landscape. In your hands.
Figured timber, a river of teal and two small worlds in the soundboard. The Earth V2 brings the colours of nature into a distinctly modern instrument.
Its story begins in the grain, then follows the strings from antique brass to shell and maple. Look a little closer and the decoration gives way to a considered construction: a slim body, a reinforced composite neck and two ways to capture the acoustic sound.
01 / The natural canvas
No straight lines.
No ordinary landscape.
The first thing to catch the eye is not a logo or a piece of hardware. It is the highly figured Japanese Tamo Ash across the top: ripples, folds and shifting lines that seem to move as the guitar turns towards the light.
Flatsawn Zebrano brings a different rhythm to the back and sides, with darker stripes running through warm timber. Maple binding draws a quiet boundary around the instrument, while abalone purfling traces the front and back. Because these are natural materials, the grain pattern belongs to the individual guitar rather than to a printed design.
Follow the river
Where the landscape
begins to bloom.
A line of teal travels beneath the strings. It connects the composite fretboard to the bridge, setting cool colour against the warmth of the timber. The colour runs through the composite material; it is part of the construction as well as the visual identity.
Along that river sits the custom Flora inlay, formed from mother-of-pearl and maple. Shell changes with the light, while the maple gives the shapes their warmer notes. Together they turn the playing surface into a small continuation of the natural world.
The practical details remain close by: a 16-inch fretboard radius, 21 rolled-edge stainless-steel frets and a full 25.5-inch scale. The ornament has room to tell its story without replacing the information a player needs.
02 / At the meeting point
Small details.
A connected design.
The bridge is where several parts of the Earth’s identity meet. Teal repeats the colour of the fretboard. Brass echoes the machine heads. Abalone returns to the changing colours around the soundholes and body edges.
Each part has its own purpose, yet none feels visually isolated. The result is a close-up worth spending time with, rather than a detail passed on the way to the next photograph.
Six quiet accents.
Each brass bridge pin is finished with an abalone dot. From a distance the pins read as warm metal; up close the shell introduces small flashes of colour. It is a restrained detail, repeated six times beside the teal bridge.
The string path.
A compensated bone saddle sits across the composite bridge. At the other end is a 43 mm bone nut. Between them lies the 25.5-inch scale: the measured foundation beneath the Earth’s more expressive details.
03 / Beneath the surface
A modern structure.
A familiar outline.
The Earth V2’s C-shape neck is made from composite material. Its outline is the part the hand meets first; the construction inside it is less immediately visible, but just as much a part of the instrument.
Two carbon-fibre support rods sit within the neck alongside a two-way truss rod. The reinforcement and adjustment are separate elements of the design, rather than a decorative claim added to the surface.
Look back at the fretboard and the contrast becomes clear: the Flora inlay tells the visible story, while a different kind of detail continues underneath it. Natural references on the outside, contemporary construction within.
The unseen chapter.
This retained construction image explains the dual carbon-fibre reinforcement concept. It is a reference to the structural principle, clearly distinguished from the Earth V2 photographs around it.
The river continues.
Turn the guitar around and the teal River skunk stripe carries the colour along the back of the neck. It is a detail the audience may rarely see, yet it keeps the same visual language on the player’s side of the instrument.
04 / Wood, metal & two worlds
The story reaches
every edge.
As the eye moves from the neck to the headstock and back towards the body, the same materials return. Figured timber meets antique brass; shell surrounds two openings that give the Earth its name.
These are not separate ornaments assembled at the end. They are recurring notes in the design, allowing the instrument to feel connected from one end to the other.
At the end of the river.
The headstock returns to the Japanese Tamo Ash of the top, with matching figured veneer and maple binding. Six die-cast alloy machine heads use an antique brass finish and a 19:1 gear ratio.
A custom Earth-branded truss-rod cover repeats the metal finish. Warm timber and aged-looking brass bring the instrument’s colours together at the end of the string path.
Earth. And its Moon.
Two offset soundholes replace the familiar single circle. The larger Earth opening measures 80 mm in diameter; the smaller Moon measures 20 mm. Abalone rosettes frame both, bringing the shell detailing back into the centre of the design.
Inside is a label built around the alchemical symbol for Earth. Maple binding, abalone purfling and the antique brass Earth-branded side plate continue the idea around the body, while Lindo’s hollow bracing remains out of sight within it.
05 / When the room grows
Two sources.
Your own balance.
There are evenings when an acoustic guitar needs nothing more than a chair and a pair of hands. At other times it needs to reach an amplifier, a mixing desk or a larger room. The Earth V2’s BS3M system gives that second setting its own set of controls.
An undersaddle piezo and an internal soundhole microphone capture the instrument from different positions. The blend control lets the player choose the balance, rather than committing to one source for every situation.
Blend. Shape. Tune.
Three-band EQ offers tonal adjustment, while the built-in chromatic tuner is ready before the next song begins. Phase and notch controls provide additional tools for working with amplified sound and feedback.
The controls are gathered on the side of the guitar, leaving the timber, inlay and soundholes to tell their quieter story across the front.
A route to the next room.
A quarter-inch jack offers the familiar connection to an acoustic amplifier or compatible audio equipment. Beside it, a balanced XLR output provides another route to a compatible PA system, mixing desk or recording setup.
At home the cable can remain in the case. When the setting changes, the connection points are already part of the instrument.

06 / Before the case closes
The final chapter
belongs to the player.
Before dispatch, the Earth V2 goes through Lindo’s UK setup and inspection in Bristol. Cosmetic condition and preamp operation are checked, followed by neck relief, nut height and string action.
The frets are polished, the fretboard treated and the guitar tuned. Playability and a final inspection complete the process. It is the practical work behind the photographs: time spent with the instrument before it begins its next journey.
A premium hard case is included, together with an Allen key and a 9V battery. The case offers a place for the guitar between playing sessions, rehearsals and travel; the music that follows is yours to decide.
07 / The proportions
Full-size scale.
A slimmer body.
The Earth V2 pairs a 41-inch full-size format with a 25.5-inch scale and an 80 mm body depth. These figures describe different parts of the instrument: overall size, speaking length of the strings and the depth of the body.
