Sound Pure's Take
The Dunable DE Gnarwhal blends bold style with effortless playability, offering a stunning purple-to-gold colorshift body over a rock-solid mahogany build that feels inspiring in hand. Its medium “C” mahogany neck with ebony board, Luminlay dots, and jumbo frets plays fast and comfortably, while the Dunable Cthulhu pickups deliver powerful, articulate tone that rewards both precision and creativity. With its gloss body, matte neck, dependable hardware, and padded gig bag, this South-Korean–crafted Gnarwhal stands as a performance-ready investment for players who want an expressive instrument built for the long haul.
From Dunable
The Gnarwhal was released in 2021 as the fifth guitar model in our lineup. We knew that to justify a new release, it needed to truly offer something different, yet fit in with the existing Dunable ethos and aesthetic.
We wanted to make the guitar that begs to be played, and is impossible to put down. After meticulous engineering, this 25.5" scale neck set into a reverse offset body, crafted with a carved arm relief and belly cut, quickly became one of the most popular Dunable models.
