The Lindo Slim SE Left Handed – Designed in Bristol, U.K, by Lindo Guitars

Tonewoods and Shape

The “ultimate ergonomic guitar” with a modern cutaway body shape for ultra player comfort and style. The back and sides are zebrawood, which offers a full all-round sound but projects the mid-range most prominently.

The Lindo Slim SE Left Handed features zebrawood, with its flatsawn grain, giving it a striking three-dimensional appearance. The top is also a flatsawn bookmatched figured ash which is incredibly unique and works to compliment the zebrawood by taming the projection of the mids and adding its own element of “air” to the sound. The use of a mahogany neck with black walnut fretboard mellows the sound and adds warmth to the mid-range which means it’s the perfect coupling with the body.

Features and Benefits

As well being perfectly fitted to the player, the Lindo Slim SE body depth of just 75mm makes this the perfect guitar for gigging and touring.

The BS5M preamp with piezo/mic blend system gives you the option to blend the sound from the under-saddle pickup with the sound from the microphone in the body. This is perfect for a slim body guitar as the mic enhances all the low-end warmth, whilst you can retain the clarity of notes from the piezo. The preamp also has a 5-band EQ which means you have control of the bass, low middle, high middle, treble, presence and master volume. The tuner is chromatic and is displayed on a backlit LCD with LED indicators, so as well as being able to easily shape your sound, you can check the guitars tuning wherever you are and in any lighting conditions.

The added notch filter control allows you to cut frequencies within a range of 100-500 Hz.

The ‘phase’ button is exceptionally handy, as it can help to reduce feedback by synchronising the guitar’s sound wave with the amplifier’s sound wave. Often, the natural sound wave produced by the acoustic guitar can be out of phase with that of the amplifier. You will hear the difference because an ‘out of phase’ tone will sound tinny and unbalanced, where as an ‘in phase’ tone will be fuller and warmer.

The Lindo Slim SE has a dual output using either a jack lead or balanced XLR for plugging into an amplifier, mixing desks or an audio interface.

There is also the feature of the double output using either a jack lead or balanced XLR for plugging into mixing desks or audio interfaces.
