The satin finished roasted maple neck with rosewood fingerboard feels instantly familiar, offering smooth playability from the first chord. Finished in nitrocellulose lacquer over a lightweight paulownia body, the guitar resonates freely and will age naturally over time, developing character through wear and checking that makes it uniquely yours. Stainless steel jumbo frets provide exceptional longevity, while modern hardware ensures reliable performance on stage and in the studio.
Everything this guitar needs is here, with nothing unnecessary added. Vintage character meets modern value in a refined, player focused design.
