Тype: Hollow Body

A hollow body guitar is an electric guitar with a hollow body that contains resonating cavities. It has a warm and rich sound, often used in jazz, blues and rock. The body of a guitar usually contains F-holes, which contribute to its acoustic properties. Hollow body guitars have a more natural, less distorted tone than solid body guitars, but are more prone to feedback at higher volumes.

Body: Laminated Maple

Laminated maple provides a bright and resonant tone with excellent response and sustain. The layered construction adds strength and stability, reducing susceptibility to cracking or warping. The laminated maple body maintains clear highs and punchy tone, making it ideal for musical styles that require a precise and articulate response.

Fretboard: Ebony

Ebony is a very hard and dense wood with a smooth surface and a rich, dark color. It offers a clear, articulate tone with excellent response. The ebony fingerboard is popular for its durability, speed and luxurious appearance, while offering excellent playability and precise tone.

Neck: Maple

Maple is known for its strength and stability, making it ideal for necks that need to resist bending and warping.

Pickups Configuration: Filter'Tron / Filter'Tron

The Filter'Tron/Filter'Tron configuration means that the guitar is equipped with two Filter'Tron pickups. These pickups offer a clear yet full tone with excellent articulation and moderate output, while reducing noise and maintaining clarity. This configuration is particularly popular for Rockabilly, Country and Vintage Rock genres for its distinctive sound with a touch of brilliance and warmth.
