The soundboard of the Blue SW is made from high-grade Sitka spruce. The back and sides feature high-quality black walnut. The fingerboard of the Blue SW is made from high-quality ebony and features buffed frets with hidden fret leg ends, which allows for high playing comfort.
A high precision, dual-action truss rod maintains neck stability and allows for fine adjustment of the neck relief, bilaterally. The truss rod is housed in a highly rigid carbon casing which enables a very smooth and controlled neck relief, ensuring the best playability and enduring optimal setup.
Open-Pore Finish leaves wood pores exposed, which preserves the natural acoustic properties of tonewoods, and provides an excellent level of surface protection. This combination of high-quality solid tonewoods and proprietary finish produces a beautiful musical sound across the entire tonal range, with balanced midrange frequencies.
The stylish look of the spruce soundboard is underscored by faux tortoise pickguard and body binding.
The soundhole is adorned by a rosette featuring a double ring with a black walnut inlay.
