Initial Tone Report:
Luscious clarity and fullness. It's tough to beat what is basically an all mahogany guitar
with a "snappy" fretboard. The koa top doesn't add much, if any, high end...so,
this the equivalent to mahogany. Talk about piano-like tones. Deep deep rich low-end and
the fretboard and pickups are helping with the clarity and articulation. What an awesome
sound. Jason, this one is a winner - trust me!!!
Thanks for everything, I wish you could have made it over this weekend to pick it up. I
would have loved to have seen your face. Enjoy it and thanks again,
Ron
