LINDEN BODY — NATURAL, FLAT & ACCURATE TONAL CHARACTER — The all-Linden top, back, and sides deliver a natural and accurately flat tonal character that provides a clean and uncoloured acoustic foundation, making this semi-hollow guitar a confident performer across blues, jazz, rock, and country styles.
CLASSIC ELITE PICKUPS — RICH NUANCED TONE WITH FAT LOW END — The neck and bridge Classic Elite humbuckers deliver rich, nuanced tone with a fat low end, providing the warm and expressive tonal character that has earned the Artcore series its devoted worldwide following across multiple genres since 2002.
CENTER BLOCK PICKUP MOUNTING — INCREASED SUSTAIN & FEEDBACK ELIMINATION — The pickups are mounted directly to the center block of the AS body, significantly increasing sustain while eliminating the feedback that can challenge fully hollow body guitars in louder amplified live performance settings.
NYATOH NECK WITH BOUND ROSEWOOD FRETBOARD — The Nyatoh neck contributes a rich mid-low tonal character with comfortable playability, while the bound Rosewood fretboard with acrylic block inlays provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid-range across all 22 medium frets.
GIBRALTAR PERFORMER BRIDGE & QUIK CHANGE III TAILPIECE — The Gibraltar Performer bridge delivers rich sustain and reliable tuning stability with low-positioned saddles for comfortable playability, while the Quik Change III tailpiece makes string changes significantly faster and more convenient.
