Novo Guitars Mirus J Cat's Eye Burst

This Novo Mirus J takes its aesthetic inspiration from the iconic Burns Bison guitars (that green burst), blending vintage aesthetics with modern craftsmanship. Finished in the eye-catching Cat’s Eye Burst—a color we absolutely love—this semi-hollow beauty features Fralin P90 pickups, a swamp ash body, and a 25 1/2" scale roasted maple/rosewood neck.

The result? A perfect mix of top-end bite, warmth, and fatness, delivering tones that sit somewhere between a Telecaster’s clarity and the richness and snarl of a LP Special/ES-335. Through both Fender-style and British amps, clean tones shimmer while overdriven sounds maintain that signature P90 punch and attitude.

But the Mirus J isn’t just about tone—its comfort and playability are off the charts. It’s acoustically loud and responsive even unplugged, with a broken-in medium C neck carve (.83" at the 1st fret) that feels effortless.

The unique body shape makes the long-scale neck feel like a short-scale, giving you easy access to ‘cowboy chords’ and making seated playing a dream. And for lead players, upper fret access is exceptional, making it as versatile as it is beautiful.
