Sound & Tone
The semi-hollow thinline alder body adds air and woody resonance to a fundamentally bright, twang-oriented voice, with the dual G&L MFD ASAT Classic single coils supplying clear, defined highs and a pronounced midrange that cuts without turning brittle. The maple neck and maple fingerboard keep note attack snappy and sustain focused, while the 3-way selector covers the familiar bridge bite, neck warmth, and a rounder blended middle position. It suits jazz comping, indie and alternative rhythm parts, and classic rock leads, responding well to both fingerpicking and hard-strummed chord work.
