“A feast laid out with every delicacy imaginable. That was the feeling the instrument was meant to convey once in your hands — and that was the philosophy behind the project I was presented with. The goal was to achieve the greatest possible versatility in playability, and the widest assortment in terms of tonal variety. From this premise came the decision to use three custom-wound Alnico V pickups of our own making, a varitone switch, and coil-splitting on the humbuckers. There are many similarities with the Sonora guitar, which you can see on these pages under “Instruments,” but also many visual differences. An instrument to be played — and devoured.”… Let’s Play
