Cp Thornton Professional Acoustic (Semi-Hollow Archtop)

Cp Thornton Professional Acoustic
DESCRIPTION:

“I set out to design a guitar for the player who uses both electric and acoustic tones. I worked for an Acoustic guitar company for about ten years and Dana Bourgeois told me that the most recorded guitar in Nashville was the Martin D18 because Mahogany and Spruce recorded better than Rosewood and Spruce.

"The Mahogany and Spruce in this guitar, along with the Graph Tech pickups and preamp, have an unbelievable acoustic quality. Add that to the Jason Lollar Imperial Low Wind coil tapped Humbuckers and it is one fantastic guitar. This instrument delivers exactly the tones I had hoped for.

"Also, the Professional Acoustic now includes a Master Grade Sitka Spruce Top.”
