An old idea finally comes of age. Many early violin family instruments had sympathetic strings inside the neck, and this concept has found it's way into our new guitar designs. Dubbed 'Light Body Guitars', these instruments are incredibly lightweight and durable, and provide an amazingly clear and accurate acoustic guitar tone that can also be overdriven into 'full-shred mode' without breaking up.

These unique guitars weigh about the same or less than typical acoustic guitars, and feature 12 sympathetic strings running through the inside of the neck. Produced in limited numbers, these guitars represent a significant leap forward for players desiring expanded tonal and dynamic expression from their guitars. The goal behind the design is to produce a very durable, light and roadworthy guitar that covers every range of sounds from pure acoustic to overdriven electric, with the addition of extended overtones and harmonic complexity due to the sympathetic strings and hollow neck.

"Anastasia" by Don Conoscenti. This was recorded direct into our Echo Mona 24/96 recording system with no effects, reverb or eq applied to either the guitar or the vocals. The mix is exactly as it was performed, with nothing added or taken away. This is one of our favorite songs, and is played in standard tuning with a few extra capos. Thanks Don!
