The Regent is Meridian's flagship: a one-piece mahogany body capped with a deeply figured flame maple top, carved by hand over two full days. The tobacco sunburst is applied in seven translucent coats, each sanded back to let the figure move in the light.
A pair of low-wind humbuckers — wound in-house on a 1950s Leesona machine — gives the Regent its signature voice: airy, articulate, and huge when you dig in. Gold hardware, ebony board, mother-of-pearl inlay. Fewer than twenty Regents leave the shop each year.
