Stephen Marchione brings us this 15″ Archtop, decked out in classic Marchione fashion. The sharpness of its florentine cutaway is representative of just how sharp this instrument looks. Beautiful Flamed Maple, throughout and European Spruce on top. Spretzel Locking tuners, floating bridge, single Marchione humbucker– this is a sublime example of an ultimate jazz box with plenty of gears for other styles.
