Our guitars are available in
two basic body style: The Original and The Radius. The
shape of the two bodies is the same, but the Original has a flat top
with sharply angled edges (usually featuring binding) while the Radius
has a gently rounded edge all the way around the outer edge of the body.
Both the Original and the Radius bodies are available with an optional arm contour on the lower bass side corner of the body. The Swan shape is standard for both the Original and Radius bodies with the rounded Little Wing cutaway available as an option. Binding and a Tear-drop shaped sound hole are available as on options bodies WITHOUT an arm contour only. Regardless of the shape or variation, all of our bodies share the same basic construction featuring a solid 1/4 inch top and a two piece back with a solid center core, an elongated chamber on the bass side, two smaller chambers on the treble side (one for the controls and a second in the lower bout), a deep belly cut; and a contoured neck joint.
