This is an auditorium size (like an orchestra model) sitka on hog. All solid. Made in Korea, but fretted and finished in Canada. Best neck I've ever played. 1.8" at the nut (awesome!) full D profile, matte satin finish. Ebony fretboard and bridge. Excellent sustain and definition. Bracing voiced just right so you can really dig in for some volume which pulls out a strong brilliant fundamental with splashes of overtones. The sitka is boosted by the mahogany back and sides. Not a huge body so the bass is limited, but the top is incredible and the mids are raw and sassy in that rugged and vintage way. It's very responsive. I'm really impressed with the build quality here. They go for $2100 new, and they are better than a lot of $3000 guitars tbh.
The venetian bevel is honestly useless though, it;s neat, but unneccessary. Lots of abalone if you like that kind of thing. Mine came with the fishman ellipse system which I think is better than the LR baggs anthem (this is dead silent re: noise) they both have the undersaddle and mic and preamp involved in their systems. This does have a split saddle but Fishman makes the split saddle undersaddle system (very neat)
This has awesome ebony buttons on the tuners (very premium feeling)
The guitar just feels expensive and sounds very articulate. It's honestly a real sleeper that more people need to check out imo.
