Go wild using Super 58 pickups. Their name says it all. Used by the likes of George Benson and John Scofield, you can be confident in their responsiveness, power, and the exquisite sound they deliver. Positioned at the neck and bridge, these humbuckers bring a smooth, vintage sound, enriched with warmth and definition. They are perfect for players who are after a superb jazz tone, whilst their sonic balance and articulation offers the versatility needed for a range of other styles.
Sculpt your tone and create a sound that is well and truly yours. Alongside vibrant pickups, the AF95 is equipped with an array of controls that desire the skilful adjustment of any avid guitarist. With two volume controls and two tone controls, you are provided with the most amazing freedom to shape your music, tailoring the effect of each pickup. A handy pickup switch then allows you to flick between the two humbuckers quickly and easily, without causing any disruption to your playing.
Crafted from linden, the back and sides of this guitar offer a beautifully balanced tone, perfect for pushing hard with Super 58 humbuckers. It is the ultimate wood for electric guitars as it provides immense sturdiness as well as the tonal versatility needed for masses of creativity and exploration of various techniques. Attached on top is a gorgeous spruce top. Again, spruce brings that wonderful balance and versatility, but it also offers a magnificent dynamic range. Project every single note with crisp articulation and it will soar to the back of the room. Showcasing a striking sunburst finish, the body of this guitar is elegant yet commanding and embodies a true vintage aesthetic.
The combination of nyatoh and maple used for the neck begs the palm of any skilful guitarist. These two tonewoods are superbly robust, meaning they can handle any kind of performance, however wild and ferocious it may be. Put them together and you have an absolute beast of a neck, promising to thrive for years to come. The tone it produces encompasses the resonance of nyatoh and the brightness of maple, whilst its quick note decay and minimal feedback makes it perfect for gigging with. The set-in design then ensures notes don't disappear too quickly; it grants them shimmering sustain that results in a full-bodied sound.
Attached on top is a stunning ebony fretboard, another fantastically sturdy component of the AF95 Artcore. Ebony can take the frequent attack of your fingertips and still provide you with an excellent, responsive tone. With a naturally smooth and fast finish, your fingers will be able to move swiftly from chord to chord as if floating on air. Prepare for a thrilling gig.
