This is a brand new mint condition guitar, not a floor model or demo.
A finely crafted guitar that plays buttery smooth. The Classic Bluesboy Semi-Hollow has twin 'Voice Chambers' on the left and right sides of the Swamp Ash body with an "f" hole on the top giving it that classic semi-hollow sound. The G&L MFD bridge pickup dispenses traditional single-coil bite and the Duncan SH55N Seth Lover churns out vintage "Patent-Applied-For" humbucker tones. This beauty has a maple fretboard, Schaller tuners, boxed steel bridge with six brass saddles, white body binding, and superb craftsmanship throughout. Includes deluxe hardshell case.
The patented Magnetic Field DesignŽ pickups use a ceramic bar magnet installed underneath each coil, with soft iron adjustable pole pieces to transfer the magnetic field to the surface of the pickup. By contrast, traditional Alnico type pickups, such as used in the Legacy models, use nonadjustable Alnico pole pieces leaving the only adjustment being pickup height. The Magnetic Field Design has this adjustment, but further offers individual adjustment of each pole piece, letting the player effectively adjust the output of each string on each pickup. Magnetic Field Design (MFD) yield about twice the output per wind, making the pickup quieter while allowing a greater overall output. The sound of Magnetic Field pickups is slightly warmer with a broader frequency response.
