The AW (Arched Wave)

Specs:

Sound:
With its three single coil pickups and 5-way switch, this guitar definitely has a Strat-like sound.
In the middle switch position, you get the bridge and neck pickups (instead of the middle pickup only). This provides a nice, gradual change in tone going from the first to the fifth switch position.

Awe Naturale: Ash, with a maple or mahogany spine. I'm offering this option for people who appreciate the natural beauty of wood. Lightly stained and finished with a satin clear-coat, to allow you to get as close to the wood as possible. Please click on the CAD renderings below for an approximate representation.

The body is chambered, which keeps the weight down, and adds to its overall tonal character. Click on images below for details.
