Novo Guitars Dealer LTD 2025 Chambered Serus P2 Bonfire

This limited edition Serus P2 features a striking Eastern curly maple top, sculpted with a refined German carve that brings out the Rickenbacker vibes in the coolest way. Paired with a chambered swamp ash body, it’s ultra-light at just 6lbs 1oz -resonant, lively, and explosively responsive.

A nod to vintage Rickenbacker styling, the hollow block inlays and full binding frame the build beautifully, while a set of Ron Ellis Ellisonics push things into brighter, snappier territory than its P90-equipped sibling.

Into a Carr Skylark (v1), the tone profile lands somewhere between a Tele and a Rickenbacker: you've got that satisfying Tele bite and clarity on the bridge, without veering into icepick territory, and a rich, chimey fullness in the neck and middle positions that feels unmistakably Rick-flavored.

As always with Novo, the feel is just as compelling as the sound. The .880" chunky C neck has a silky worn-in finish that brings to mind the best '50s-era necks—broken-in, effortless, and moderately chunky. And thanks to the contoured body and thoughtful ergonomics, even the highest frets are within easy reach.

From the first strum, it’s clear: the build quality here is top-shelf. Impeccable fretwork, a dialed-in setup, and an instantly familiar vibe that invites you to keep playing for hours on end. Another knockout from the crew at Novo!
