  • Bone Nut & Saddle
  • Mini Grover Tuners
  • Mother of pearl inlays
  • Adjustable truss rod

    This beauty is light-build strummer. With Sitka spruce top and Cherry back & sides. With a density and reflectivity approaching that of maple, Cherry produces a rich, projective midrange and balance without favoring the bass or treble frequencies. It has a 'darker' tone than Maple, and a strong fundamental. It is ideal for a
    strumming guitar, where it's tones can really be brought out, while keeping definition of
    each string.

    This guitar is a well build performer.

    You'll find more information about Arie and his instruments on his website.
