A piezo pickup in the bridge enables the player to blend in acoustic sound, or use the stereo output to keep electric and acoustic sounds separate.

Beyond all this, we don’t have to forget the most important thing: Jane sounds good.
Relish Guitars are made in Lucerne, Switzerland. All Hand crafted by the Relish Brothers, Silvan and Pirmin, these guitars define the term Swiss Precision. They are incredible works of art built with tone and utility in mind.

INCREDIBLE RELISH® MARY ONE™
Ever swapped a Humbucker with a P90 - in two seconds? On top of creating incredible sustain, our sandwich-style body construction makes way for the Relish® Pickup Swapping System that turns a Relish® guitar into a hand-crafted Swiss Army axe. High-quality materials and components in combination with a whole array of innovative tools grants our Swiss Made guitars the highest tonal versatility, extensive sustain and unique playability.
Features on the Relish® Mary One™ include custom-wound Relish® Buckers XV pickups, a modern “C” shape maple neck, 10” bamboo fretboard and 24 medium jumbo nickel silver frets. There’s also a graphite nut, Gotoh® SG 381 tuners and Emerson® electronics
The guitar is available with different wood tops and pore fillings and in eight colours, along with an onboard Graph Tech® Ghost piezo to blend in natural acoustic sound.

RELISH® MARY ONE™ At A Glance:
● Control your Mary One™ by a sleek touch pad
● 17 mix positions
● Coil Split function by two finger touch
● Battery status indication by RGB LEDs
● True Bypass & Analog Output Signal
● Automatically falls into sleep mode after three minutes not in use to save battery & awakens immediately when you pick up your MARY ONE™
The Mary One™ has many faces. She’s a gentle Jazz singer, a mighty metal force and a husky blues jammer. Whatever you want her to be, the combination of a unique construction, a range of innovative features and Swiss craftsmanship make Mary One™ a multi-faceted and inspiring instrument.
Fully coated in magnificent veneers, Mary One™ really stands out with a crystal clear sound and incredible sustain that stems from her revolutionary floating sandwich construction.
MARY ONE™ features an aluminium core for a sustain-loaded brilliant crystal clear sound, unique designs and a magnetic back for light speed pickup-swapping. A three-layer body, available in different wood tops, pore fillings and eight colours, along with a piezo to blend in its natural acoustic sound, makes Mary One™ of a kind.
Relish® has unveiled the new Mary One™, which, similar to its higher-priced Mary™ model, boasts a sandwich-style body construction and magnetic back lid that makes it possible to achieve “light-speed” pickup swapping, according to the company.
The crux of the Mary One™ is its three-layer body and aluminium core. The top and back are separated from the centre with industrial rubber rings, allowing the aluminium centre to vibrate freely. The back is attached to the centre using industrial magnets for easy access to the electronics.
____________________________________________________________________________
WHAT SHE’S MADE OF
The RELISH® Mary One™ features an aluminium core for a brilliant crystal clear sound, a semi-matt varnish and a magnetic back lid for light-speed pickup swapping. The modern “C” shape maple neck carries a 10” bamboo fretboard with 24 medium jumbo nickel silver frets. A graphite nut, Gotoh® SG 381 tuners and Emerson electronics ensure high-quality sound and playability. Mary One™ comes with our very own custom-wound Relish® Buckers XV.
The 2019 Mary editions comes with a GHOST piezo system by Graph Tech to add warmth and enhance Mary™’s natural acoustic sound. Relish®'s 17-Way Touch Slider with coil split function allows you to find your perfect neck/bridge mix along the tone spectrum.

Question: How does the Relish® Pickup Swapping system work?
Answer: You simply pop off the magnetic back lip of the guitar, pull out the pickup with two fingers and put in the new swapping-ready pickup. It takes no more than two seconds. No tools, no soldering, no removing strings. Easy as pie.

RELISH® Incredible Innovation
Relish Guitars are made in Lucerne, Switzerland. All Hand crafted by the Relish Brothers, Silvan and Pirmin, these guitars define the term Swiss Precision. They are incredible works of art built with tone and utility in mind.
Already in the hands of prominent touring professionals these instruments offer tone, versatility, reliability, and performance. Relish Guitars are enjoying phenomenal success both at home in Switzerland and abroad from the United States to Europe and Asia. Most musicians agree, these guitars are like no other. Paul from Guitar World says, “They combine all the best elements from a solid body and hollow body all in one package”.
INNOVATION: PICKUP SWAPPING SYSTEM
ANY PICKUPS?
No, but the right ones. In order to make pickups compatible with our swapping system, we have developed a special mounting system. For now, we offer a fine selection of nine pairs of pickups by Seymour Duncan, Bare Knuckle and our very own custom-wound in-house creations. But if you have a special wish, we can make it happen. Simply reach out.
INNOVATION: TOUCH CONTROL
The Touch Control allows you to find your perfect neck/bridge pickup mix along the entire tone frequency & spectrum
INNOVATION: SANDWICH CONSTRUCTION
Truly great sound is the product of good vibrations - both in tone and in spirits. In order to build guitars with a unique sound and extensive sustain, Relish® have developed a Piano-like "floating sandwich construction": A sandwich of two wood veneers with a aluminium or wood frame in between let the whole guitar vibrate unlike any other guitar construction.
INNOVATION: BAMBOO FRETBOARDS
Bamboo is harder than any other tropical wood and does not expand in humidity or temperature changes. Basically, it’s the perfect fretboard material: Sustainable, endurable and the playability is just fantastic. String bending works perfectly, it has the beautiful looks of Palisander, plays like Ebony and needs very little attention and care. Relish® Guitars Switzerland developed a technique that increases the density of Bamboo fretboards, reaching the highest durability class according to EU Standards.
INNOVATION: GHOST PIEZO (option)
The GHOST piezo system by Graph Tech® creates a warm, authentic and natural acoustic sound for even more sound varieties. Ghost loaded pickups let you get that acoustic tone from your electric guitar. Simply blend it into the mix with a separate volume knob. The GHOST riders sit tightly in their (string saver) saddles, each calibrated individually. The Acousti-Phonic Pre-amp is hidden in your Relish® Guitar’s body and gives you the option of sending the signal to a separate amp due to its stereo output jack.

Up Close & Personal with
Pirmin Giger & Silvan Küng
SIX STRINGS...
1. GUITARS EXCHANGE: How did you end up becoming, or start out as, a luthier?
RELISH® GUITARS: Pirmin started in his industrial design studies to develop the first prototype. As he has shown me the guitar we started to show it to musicians and developed more prototypes together until we finished with our final series standard model.
2. GUITARS EXCHANGE: What inspires you to design and manufacture a new guitar?
RELISH® GUITARS: Being bored of over 60years of no changes in fabrication of an electric body that influences more to sound than just a solid body construction.
3. GUITARS EXCHANGE: Do you look for a given sound for any particular reason?
RELISH® GUITARS: We launched Jane for better sound in terms of more sustain due to the aluminium frame & also a warmer vibrant sound due to the sandwich body construction.
4. GUITARS EXCHANGE: Select one and talk about: soul, jazz, blues, rock, pop…or other.
RELISH® GUITARS: Doesn’t matter – Jane comes as Ashy, Walnut and Cherry model. On every Jane we provide different pickups for any style you like to play.
The Bluesy Walnut Jane, the Jazzy Ashy or the Rock n’ Cherry – whatever you like… we also provide other branded pickups (Lollar, Lundgren, Goodtone e.g.) with our plug & play connector pickups system – so there is no need of soldering!
5. GUITARS EXCHANGE: Are you a jobbing artist or a solitary artisan?
RELISH® GUITARS: Definitely a jobbing artist – for developing a piece of Art as Jane is, you need to have the vibe of an artist – but then also comes the business part which is important to build up production and international sales – that’s the jobbing part!
6. GUITARS EXCHANGE: What was the last record or CD you bought? And listened to?
RELISH® GUITARS: I bought a few just because we got sponsored by VW Multivan with a T5 – therefore we needed good music while driving around and delivering our Jane (John Mayer, Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton and BossHoss…)
. . . ONE BODY . . .
7. GUITARS EXCHANGE: Electric or acoustic?
RELISH® GUITARS: Electric with influence of a bit of acoustic character.
. . . ONE NECK . . .
8. GUITARS EXCHANGE: What is the secret behind your choice of wood?
RELISH® GUITARS: The Neck is without tropical wood! We wanted to have a sustainable guitar – therefore we use bamboo fretboards.
. . . AND TWO HANDS
9. GUITARS EXCHANGE: Why should we consider luthier-crafted guitars as a viable option to guitars made by the large manufacturers?
RELISH® GUITARS: Bigger sound, better quality & more inspiration!
10. GUITARS EXCHANGE: Who plays your guitars? Who would you like to have play your guitars?
RELISH® GUITARS: Aloe Blacc’s guitar player Joel van Dijck plays our Jane (“I need a dollar the dollar is what I need”) then also a guitar is in Capital Studios where all the big Grammy award winners can play our Jane in the studios. And Jane is also travelling with “Playing for Change” around the world where Keith Richards and U2 is participating…
We have a big list of major artists who we would love to show our Jane... I’m sure that will happen sometime in a while…

RELISH® GUITARS: Definitely a jobbing artist – for developing a piece of Art as Jane is, you need to have the vibe of an artist – but then also comes the business part which is important to build up production and international sales – that’s the jobbing part!
6. GUITARS EXCHANGE: What was the last record or CD you bought? And listened to?
RELISH® GUITARS: I bought a few just because we got sponsored by VW Multivan with a T5 – therefore we needed good music while driving around and delivering our Jane (John Mayer, Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton and BossHoss…)
. . . ONE BODY . . .
7. GUITARS EXCHANGE: Electric or acoustic?
RELISH® GUITARS: Electric with influence of a bit of acoustic character.
. . . ONE NECK . . .
8. GUITARS EXCHANGE: What is the secret behind your choice of wood?
RELISH® GUITARS: The Neck is without tropical wood! We wanted to have a sustainable guitar – therefore we use bamboo fretboards.
. . . AND TWO HANDS
9. GUITARS EXCHANGE: Why should we consider luthier-crafted guitars as a viable option to guitars made by the large manufacturers?
RELISH® GUITARS: Bigger sound, better quality & more inspiration!
10. GUITARS EXCHANGE: Who plays your guitars? Who would you like to have play your guitars?
RELISH® GUITARS: Aloe Blacc’s guitar player Joel van Dijck plays our Jane (“I need a dollar the dollar is what I need”) then also a guitar is in Capital Studios where all the big Grammy award winners can play our Jane in the studios. And Jane is also travelling with “Playing for Change” around the world where Keith Richards and U2 is participating…
We have a big list of major artists who we would love to show our Jane... I’m sure that will happen sometime in a while…
