Spira Guitars T400MWR Satin Wine Red

A modern T designed for power: the place of the T-400 in the Spira universe

With the T-400, Spira takes the timeless codes of the T-style guitar and adds a decidedly contemporary approach. The choice of torrified woods, an Ebony Tech fingerboard, 24 jumbo frets, and an HH configuration clearly show the intention: to offer a guitar with a classic look but built for modern techniques, stage performance, and powerful tones.

For whom, and for which styles?

This Spira is primarily aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a responsive, stable instrument that is easy to set up. It is particularly comfortable in rock, hard rock, metal, and all styles requiring gain, tight palm-mutes, and good definition. Its 1 volume / 1 tone control setup is straightforward, ideal for effective playing both in a band and in the studio.

The sound

The torrified poplar body promotes a quick response, with overall balance and present mids, while the torrified Canadian maple neck enhances attack and precision. The combination of "torrified woods + fixed bridge" provides a more direct feel under the fingers, with good stability and reliable intonation.

On the amplification side, the Spira Villain humbuckers (ceramic magnets, 12k output) deliver a dense and powerful sound, with firm lows and sharp highs that maintain clarity even when saturated. The HH configuration is perfect for heavy rhythms and leads that need to cut through the mix, while remaining versatile for cleaner tones via the tone control.
