Potvin Super Bee
DESCRIPTION:

Swing Bee
The Swing Bee is the laid back member of the Super Bee line-up.  Although a maple top on a heavily chambered body along with a pair TV Jones Classic pickups provide all the incentive you need to get a little unruly!  Rockabilly, blues, jazz, country, whatever you play, the Swing Bee has you covered.

Super Bee
The Super Bee is Potvin's attempt to capture the feel of a vintage muscle car in a guitar.  Simple, powerful and eye-catching looks.  Tonally, the standard pickup offering is quite versatile, offering twang from the Lollar Vintage T bridge pickup and the smooth clarity of a TV Jones classic in the neck.  These two together really are one of Potvin's favourite pickup combinations (of course they offer other pickup options to suite your taste!).

Killer Bee
The Killer Bee is the wild child of the Super Bee Series.  With a matched set of three Lollar P90s it has more than enough horsepower to push any amp over the top. But wait! These P90s are very volume and touch sensitive and at low volume are astoundingly clear and clean.
