Cp Thornton Elite (Semi-Hollow Archtop)

Cp Thornton Elite
DESCRIPTION:

“The Elite is an all Curly Maple guitar that has fantastic sustain and punch. My unique Ebony Tailpiece option gives a little more warmth and woodiness to the tone of the guitar although if you do a lot of string bends you will probably want the traditional stop tailpiece.

"The Elite is a truly versatile guitar that I think is at it’s best for Rock and Blues. The all Curly Maple construction lends itself beautifully to the different sunburst finishes we offer.

"Also, I now include 5A top and back wood on every Elite.”-Chuck Thornton
