About the Kon 6 – Essential – CerussitGrau

The Kon is Belforti’s answer to a simple question: what happens when you take one of the most proven electric guitar formats in history and rebuild it from the ground up with modern sensibilities? The result is an instrument that feels immediately familiar and entirely new at the same time.

The silhouette reads Telecaster single cutaway, slab body, bolt-on neck but the details tell a different story. The body has been reworked with improved contours and a smaller footprint, reducing weight and improving balance without sacrificing the acoustic resonance that makes the format work. The poplar body is finished in a deep matte grey cool, understated, and precisely the kind of finish that lets the playing do the talking. A brushed black aluminium pickguard replaces the standard plastic, adding a material contrast and a rigidity to the control surface that feels immediately premium.

The birdseye maple neck carries a maple fretboard dressed with Belforti’s signature falling cat sequence inlay a recurring motif running up the neck positions that is playful without being loud, and unmistakably the workshop’s own. Stainless steel frets complete a playing surface that is fast, precise, and built for the long term.

Lollar Special T pickups in neck and bridge deliver a voiced, musical take on the classic Telecaster pickup format more refined than vintage-spec, more characterful than modern high-output. Bright, clear, and immediate, with the twang and snap the format demands and the evenness and warmth that studio and stage work require.

The Kon is the first of its model. A new chapter in the Belforti lineup, built on a foundation that has proven itself for decades.
