The premium appointments include sophisticated black ABS binding that creates striking visual contrast, an elegant rosewood rosette that adds warmth and visual appeal, a professional ebony fingerboard that provides smooth playability and contributes to the instrument's tonal clarity, and reliable Graph Tech NuBone® nut and saddle for optimal string performance. High-quality D'Addario® Pro-Arté Titanium strings complement the wood combination perfectly, delivering exceptional clarity and projection that showcases the instrument's dynamic range.
