It is presented for light fingerpicking and medium strumming, with onboard volume, active bass and treble controls for amplified use. A phase switch is available for feedback management. The right-handed guitar is finished in Sunset Edgeburst with Italian acrylic diamond inlays and gold Taylor tuners.
