This guitar can do it all. The tone of this instrument is lush. A nice warm sound is produced with robust bottom end. I tried it through a princeton amp with a little reverb and vibrato, one word to describe it is beautiful. Being an arch top, it has excellent responsiveness and life with each note. One of my favorite things about this instrument is the the maple binding on every single part of the guitar. The body, the neck, the headstock, the soundholes, the pickguard, no place was left unbound in this gorgeous maple. The back and sides too are a beautiful figured maple with lots of visual effect. Premium hand carved spruce top brings it all together with that great velocity of sound. To top it all off is the premium black ebony tail piece, bridge and fingerboard.
