Sculpted to perfection
The body of this signature is crafted from mahogany.

The combination of these provides a luxurious playing experience, thanks to their natural and supportive feel.

The fingerboard is adorned with twenty frets, giving you the perfect tonal range to experiment with. These woods also contribute to the incredible intonation this model produces by adding a warm and mellow tone, with complex highs, thick and creamy lows, and an appealing midrange.
