Manufacturer's Description:

This beautifully crafted acoustic guitar blends timeless design with premium tonewoods to create an instrument that delivers exceptional sound and visual appeal. The top is made of Italian Alpine Spruce, renowned for its clarity, dynamic range, and resonant warmth, while the Sitka Spruce bracing enhances its projection and tonal balance. The back and sides are constructed from Pacific Big Leaf Flamed Maple, which not only provides a bright, articulate tone but also gives the guitar a striking, visually captivating grain pattern.

The antique white binding and Style 45 Boltaron rosette add refined details, complementing the elegant appearance of the instrument. With a clear top color, the guitar’s gloss body finish beautifully showcases the natural beauty of the wood, while the satin neck provides smooth playability, further enhanced by the polished headplate.

The neck is crafted from flamed maple in a two-piece construction, offering both strength and a visually appealing figure. The modified low oval neck profile and high-performance taper ensure a comfortable playing experience for a wide range of players. The fingerboard, made from black ebony, is adorned with Maltese Snowflake inlays, giving it a distinctive and elegant touch.

Equipped with Grover Gold V97-18GA Sta-Tite vintage-style tuning machines with an 18:1 gear ratio, this guitar offers precise tuning stability for consistent performance. With its modern belly bridge, the instrument maximizes string vibration for optimal tone.

This guitar, free from electronics, is designed to be an acoustic purist's dream—ideal for players who appreciate an instrument that is as beautiful as it is sonically rich. The combination of its exquisite tonewoods, attention to detail, and premium craftsmanship make this a truly special guitar that will stand out in both sound and appearance.
