Frank Brothers [Preview video available] Arcade One Nicotine White 2025

Frank Brothers Arcade One Nicotine White 2025

Frank Brothers Guitar Company delivers outstanding musical instruments to musicians around the world from its workshop in downtown Toronto, Canada.Founded in 2014 by brothers Frank, the company is known for creating guitars that combine their family's musical traditions with innovative design.

MION staff actually tried it out at the 2025 NAMM SHOW, and were captivated by its unique sound and beautiful construction, so we started selling the new "Frank Brothers" officially.This will be the first arrival in Japan, and will be a memorable first arrival.

This brand has a unique guitar lineup that combines craftsmanship and artistry.
The first product that caught MION's attention was the brand's flagship model, the Arcade One.

Solid mahogany body with highly adaptable arch top and back.?It has been given an overwhelming full-gloss relic finish with a dense weather check.It features a curved top and back, special deep neck tenon, and the brand's trademark blended heel.The fingerboard uses MacArthur ebony.

All Frank Brothers necks are made with the new V-joint construction.
This joint method was used by Martin until around World War I and was a very strong neck joining method.
Not only does it prevent the grain from flowing, but it also has the added benefit of reducing material waste and ultimately making the seams invisible.

Even though many guitars are equipped with a "diamond volute," it is extremely rare to actually use a V-joint.Frank Brothers is probably the only electric guitar manufacturer to use this construction, and this joint style is usually only found on top-of-the-line classical guitars.

The installed pickup is the independently developed "FBGC "V.O." Humbucker Set."This humbucker was created in collaboration with legendary Canadian pickup winder Tim McNelly.The spark, clarity, and midrange balance you've come to expect from "P.A.F" are in perfect harmony.

Wound using vintage 42 gauge enamel wire, without potting, to maximize dynamics and vintage tone.

We are particular about the hardware, such as the floating tailpiece, and the guitar sound and playing feel are different from those of other manufacturers.While maintaining the high-resolution texture found in high-end guitars, it also has the feel of an interesting bizarro guitar, and has a mysterious charm that makes you keep playing it for a long time as you feel like you are coming up with new phrases.

It's a small point, but the fact that the back cavity is a skeleton is also something we're very particular about, and by showing the internal wiring that we didn't originally want the user to see, it shows that we're confident that we've done the soldering and wiring as neatly as possible.
A gem that complements the player's individuality and is worth the high price range.As of 2025, our store is the only place in Japan where you can try out actual Frank Brothers guitars.Please come and visit us on this occasion.
