Okoume Tonewood
The body and neck are made from a single piece of Okoume, a bright, lightweight tonewood with a more open grain than mahogany.

Premium string through body design for excellent sustain and stable tuning.

1:14 Ratio Sealed Tuners
1:14 ratio sealed tuners make tuning easy and stable.

Stunning Natural Resonance
Using a single billet of wood for the body and neck means that the grain will be an even match across the instrument and allows the guitar to reverberate freely and evenly – a glue join would have been a barrier to reverberation.

Set Neck Construction
Premium set-neck construction with a single-piece Okoume body and neck to let the guitar reverberate freely and evenly.
Coil Splittable Mini Humbucker
String-through body design and coil-splittable mini humbucker pickup deliver great sounding and versatile tones.
Available in Two Colours
