Handcrafted design and exceptional woods

• Top: Sitka spruce - A wood prized for its power and harmonic richness.

• Neck: African mahogany - Stabilised and comfortable, it guarantees excellent playability.
• Fingerboard & Bridge: Richlite - A hard-wearing material with an ebony-like feel.

The combination of Sitka spruce and Japanese cherry gives this guitar a unique tone: round, deep basses, warm mids and crystal-clear highs. Ideal for fingerpicking and arpeggio players.
