The Ultra Glide is Saul Koll's exclusive, top-tier model, available only through custom orders—a true showcase of his unparalleled skill and artistry.


If you’re not yet familiar with Saul Koll, he’s been crafting exceptional instruments for over three decades, spanning everything from elegant archtops to minimalist, slab-bodied single-pickup guitars. No matter the style, his work is defined by a distinctive design language, flawless execution, and an undeniable musical soul—always inspiring, always original.

Take a moment to dive into the photos of this guitar. The closer you look, the more timeless details emerge—the elegant tailpiece, tortoise purfling, the subtle point at the end of the fingerboard, perfectly selected pearl thumbnail inlays, smooth open-gear tuners, a crystal-clear pickguard, and a stunning burst on the back and sides. We could go on, but you get the idea—every detail has been thoughtfully considered, refined, and perfected.

But the real magic happens when you pick it up and plug it in. At just 5 lbs 10 oz, it’s incredibly lightweight and perfectly balanced, with a neck profile reminiscent of a classic Gretsch—comfortable, easy to play, and welcoming to just about any style.

The pickups? A revelation. Chimey, snappy, and airy—each of the three positions on the 3-way switch delivers something special. Then, for fun, we kicked on a Vemuram overdrive and were floored. This guitar handles gain beautifully, with a crispy, EVH-esque chirp in the bridge pickup that lets every nuance of your pick attack shine through. It’s expressive, dynamic, and endlessly inspiring, with a tonal range that goes well beyond expectations.

It’s been a while since we’ve had a batch of Kolls in the shop, and the moment we picked this one up, we were reminded yet again—this isn’t just a guitar. It’s the whole package. Something truly special indeed.
