The <strong>Relicworks<\/strong> series by Barn Guitars is a tribute to the history of rock, captured in instruments with a worn and vibrant aesthetic. Observing the photos, one can perceive the authenticity of the aged finishes: from the subtle cracks of the <i>soft relic<\/i> to the deep abrasions of the <i>heavy relic<\/i>, every mark tells a fictitious but incredibly realistic story. Strapping on a Relicworks means possessing an instrument that has the soul and feel of an original vintage, but with the reliability and power of a modern boutique guitar. It is the warmth of the past meeting the energy of the present, ready to write new pages of music in your hands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8063,"template":"","meta":[],"pwb-brand":[462],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[295,305,289],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-8062","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","pwb-brand-barn-custom-guitars","product_cat-electric-basses","product_cat-electric-guitars","product_cat-string-instruments","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 -
