The iconic RS sound, made more accessible.
Why the 01?
The Galileo 01 was created to capture the iconic RS sound in a more accessible instrument.
Its focused specification reduces production time while preserving the elements that shape its distinctive voice, including the same bolt-on neck construction used across the Galileo range.
Is the 01 for me?
The Galileo 01 is for you if you want:
• The iconic RS sound, without pursuing every historical detail of the original.
• A flatter 14″ fretboard radius for faster, more effortless playing.
• A choice of two neck profiles: original chunky profile or 3 mm slimmer.
• A focused instrument with fewer options, shorter production times and a more accessible price.
