Description
What makes this guitar special: A smooth, comfortable player with a warm, rich tone & gorgeous acoustic resonance. The placement of the P-90 in the middle of the body where a natural harmonic occurs allows the guitar to produce some interesting overtones at times. Professionally set up & inspected by the experts at Cream City Music, so it plays & sounds marvelous.
