Detail 01
Selected spruce top with scalloped, quartersawn X-bracing
The bracing permits freer top vibration and is described as enhancing sustain and harmonics.

Independent shopping perspective
Natural finish AE44 combines an acoustic-ready spruce top with onboard electronics for amplified use. Its mid-depth Lyrachord body is cut away for upper-fret access, and the scalloped, quartersawn X-bracing lets the top vibrate freely. A slim nato neck, ovangkol fingerboard and perloid dots make up the playing side of the instrument. The Applause CE304T preamp puts three-band EQ and a tuner onboard, allowing bass, midrange and treble changes without adding an external tuning device.
