The first Signature Mayones Aquila® was created in close collaboration with Alex Hutchings – the versatile virtuoso known for his fusion chops, decades of stage experience around the world, and respected role as an educator.

Unmatched Playability

Designed to keep up with your imagination

While it may look like a simple bolt-on instrument, creating it is anything but. It’s the result of equal parts time-tested luthiery mastery, modern engineering, and top-tier hardware. Vintage or modern, simple or complex – it’s always about having the just right tools for the job.

Velvetrone® Ironside + Ifrit

Signature pickup Set for ultimate versitality

Three has to be better than two, right? Not necessarily—but this really is a truly versatile setup, built around the unique requirements of Alex Hutchings’ playing style: velvety and eloquent, yet powerful and direct when needed.

A stylish update of the classic 'burst

Figured Maple Tops with a signature Emory Burst finish

While we admit that looks aren’t everything, the Aquila Emory is certainly a head-turner. Combining the rich detail of Figured Maple tops with the masterfully applied Emory Burst, it’s both a natural beauty and a testament to our commitment to detail and quality.

Extended lower cutaway

Custom carved for exceptional access to the entire fingerboard

Designed with Emory in mind, this new lower cutaway allows effortless access to the instrument’s entire range – without sacrificing its elegant look and neck stabilty.
