Premium Tonewoods and Polished Finish

Durability and a nuanced tonal palette come from high-quality materials. Maple for the body and top ensures articulate highs and defined low end, while the polished finish enhances resonance and long-lasting beauty.

The ebony fingerboard adds smooth feel and articulate response for complex chord work and solos.
