Top

Elm Burl

The elm burl top is a statement of pure artistry, featuring intricate, swirling grain patterns that make each guitar a unique masterpiece. Its rich blend of deep, organic textures and striking natural figuring creates a visually stunning, almost three-dimensional effect. With its unmistakable character and one-of-a-kind aesthetic, the elm burl top transforms this guitar into a true work of art.

Lovely Curves

Signature Series tops are not only bent on the armrest which keeps intact the beautiful grain, but they are also inlayed, which seamlessly integrates the top to the body.

Electronics

In the Signature Series, every circuit and component is chosen to serve one purpose — to capture the purest form of the instrument’s voice.

Each system delivers a wide dynamic range, low noise floor, and exceptional touch response, allowing the sound to remain open, articulate, and deeply expressive.
Whether it’s the focused energy of a guitar under gain or the enveloping presence of a bass in motion, the Signature electronics translate nuance into authority.

Transparent, powerful, and responsive, they embody the S-Series philosophy: maximum output without distortion, and emotion without compromise.
