Comfort in a time of distress.

In 2020, while the world was in lockdown, Alistair set about designing the very first Emerald Acoustic Lap Steel Slide Guitar. It was a welcome distraction and inspiration during a difficult time, and so he named it Solace. After a year of refinements, we are now delighted to launch this fabulous instrument.

Hi-Tech Carbon

Carbon fibre is now used in all the most high tech industries from Aerospace to Formula one Racing where strength and weight is paramount. In fact it was in Formula One Power Boat racing that we discovered that the properties of carbon fibre are also perfectly suited to guitar making creating a light weight structure that holds up under the tension of the strings while resonating freely with the lightest touch .

Weather Resistant

If you have ever traveled with a guitar you will know just how much temperature and humidity changes can effect the structure, tuning stability and tone of a guitar. This is where carbon fibre construction really excells. Now you can take your guitar from a cold car to a warm stage without worrying that your going to go out of tune after the first strum. 

Unique Manufacturing Process

Intricacy is our excellence. Our signature one-piece moulding process delivers a guitar that is both incredibly strong and stable, resulting in fewer trips to your local luthier. The entire neck and body of Emerald Guitars are moulded together resulting in no joints becoming weak or failing over time whilst delivering impeccable resonance and sustain.

Solace - Incredible quality

Incredible quality. Great sound acoustically and plugged in. Took the order and shipped quickly. I got it roughly 5 business days after I ordered and it was shipped from Ireland to the US.
