Description

Combining premium tonewoods with a lavish suite of exquisite shell appointments, this cutaway Grand Auditorium offers a harmonious balance between tonal excellence and visual sophistication. Strikingly figured black limba back and sides are paired with a sinker redwood top reclaimed from mineral-rich California riverbeds, producing a rich, dynamic tone that blends warm lows, brilliant highs and a sweet midrange for a bold yet balanced sound. Under the hood, our V-Class sonic engine levels up volume, lengthens sustain and improves intonation all the way up the slim, satin-finished mahogany neck. A full-body gloss finish with an artfully hand-sprayed shaded edgeburst on the back, sides and neck enhances the natural beauty of these exceptional woods. A radiused ebony armrest ensures a smoother, more comfortable strumming-arm experience, visually complemented by the matching fretboard, peghead veneer, bridge, tail strip, backstrap, heel cap, and binding. An array of shell appointments includes a single-ring paua rosette, paua edge trim, and paua purfling around the top, fretboard and peghead, with Island Vine fretboard and peghead inlays in paua and mother-of-pearl to round out the package. This custom model also features antique gold Gotoh 510 tuners with black buttons, ebony bridge pins with green Australian opal dots, ES2 electronics, and a deluxe brown hardshell case.
