Portlander

The VEPR009 is a Veritas Portlander with a polished Land Rover Blue finish and a clear, expressive voice. Finished in Gloss Poly Land Rover Blue, this build pairs an alder body with a roasted maple neck and Indian rosewood fingerboard, giving the guitar a focused, balanced and responsive feel under the hands. The white pickguard brings contrast and clarity to the look, while nickel hardware keeps the overall aesthetic clean and timeless. The Portlander platform is all about balance. Chords stay articulate, single notes have definition, and the guitar reacts naturally to dynamics — from clean, open voicings to pushed rhythm work and expressive lead lines. At the heart of the guitar are Veritas’ own BearCats pickups, hand-wound in-house and carefully voiced for the Portlander platform. They are not an afterthought — they are part of what gives these guitars their clarity, touch response and unmistakable Veritas voice. The Bigsby B5 adds movement without turning the guitar into a novelty. Subtle vibrato, gentle chord shimmer and expressive bends sit naturally within the voice of the instrument. Every guitar sold by ToneDistrict is individually inspected and professionally set up before shipping from Barcelona, Spain. No customs. No surprises. Just a hand-built Veritas, available in Europe and ready to play.
