Introducing Mondata Classico
Mondata Switching System
On the Mondata, the main three-way toggle switch controls the front and back pickups, ignoring the middle pickup – identical to the three-way switching pattern common to most two-pickup guitars.
The second toggle controls the middle pickup exclusively. It can disable the middle pickup, enable the middle pickup (adding it to the other toggle’s selection), or override the other toggle, activating the middle pickup on its own.
This switching pattern allows for the selection of any combination of the model’s three pickups.
Mondo Pickups
With bell-like clarity, aggressive mids and a warm low-end, the proprietary Mondo P90 is an excellent choice for all genres.
The Mondobucker dials in classic humbuckers tones with a modern twist; perfect for overdriven rock tones and warm, balanced clean tones.
Optional Vibrato
The Mondata Classico is compatible with the Les Trem Tremolo. If you order one along with the guitar, we'll install it prior to shipping at no extra cost!
