The body is crafted from tempered pine. It is lightweight with excellent responsiveness and features a quick attack. With an actual weight of approximately 3.40 kg, it offers a well-balanced feel thatfs easy to handle, making it comfortable to play even for extended periods.

The heat treatment process achieves both stability and a mature, aged tone, giving the guitar a vintage-like character despite being brand new.

The neck is made of tempered maple, and the fingerboard features East Indian rosewood. This combination offers excellent rigidity and stability while adding a rich, resonant sound to the mid-low frequencies. The medium C-shaped neck is comfortable to grip and handles everything from chords to leads with ease. The 24.75-inch scale length and compound radius (9.5" to 14") ensure both comfortable playability and high expressiveness.

It is equipped with Fralin P-90 pickups. These deliver a three-dimensional, deep tone when played clean and a thick, raw sound when distorted, offering versatility across all genres. They respond well to amplifiers and pedals, faithfully capturing the playerfs nuances.

It features a Mastery Exporting M1 bridge and an NV Vibrato tremolo. While maintaining a vintage-style appearance, it offers exceptional tuning stability and playing precision, with excellent pitch recovery after using the tremolo arm.

This is the perfect choice for players who want to fully harness the appeal of the P-90, or for those seeking a balance of vintage feel and practicality. It offers a unique character combined with high versatility, making it a highly refined custom model that will serve you well for years to come.
