THE BODY

All of our bodies have the same basic construction: a solid center core flanked by a single elongated chamber on the bass side and two adjacent chambers on the treble side.  On the Original and No-Hole models, the bass side chamber runs virtually the entire length of the body.  On the Contour model, the bass side chamber is shortened to allow the arm contour.

THE NECK

The standard neck is constructed from a single piece of maple with a pair of graphite reinforcing rods running the length of the fingerboard.  (Other woods and a three piece laminated neck are available as options).  The fingerboard features a very flat 16 inch radius.  The peg head tilts back at a 10 degree angle.  The vintage style one-way truss rod keep the weight down and is conveniently accessible from the top of the neck.

The neck is available in two profiles: The Original and The American Standard (AmStan).  The thickness for the AmStan is .810 at the first fret and .890 at the octave.  The thickness of the original is .775 at the first fret and ..850 at octave.  The width at the nut for both profiles is  1 11/16th inches.
