T-ULTIMATE MANDARIN

DESCRIPTION

The T-Ultimate Mandarin is a true eye-catcher. We do our best to select the most stunning pieces of maple. We apply multiple very thin layers of nitro-cellulose lacquer, carefully hand polished between applications to highlight the natural color and grain of the wood. It has a semi-hollow body and a five-piece set neck. Both completely hand carved from solid flame maple. The neck has an ebony fingerboard that guarantees very smooth playing. This guitar is equipped with Soulshine Double Tele pickups, a Schaller* Signum bridge and a Free-Way 3x3-05 six-position toggle switch and a Push/Push tone pot.

The tops, backs and necks of our guitars are completely carved by hand, using exclusively premium solid tone woods with outstanding tonal quality. Our guitars are built from one piece, allowing the wood to vibrate more freely, producing a more complex and dynamic sound.

The construction of our semi-acoustic guitars - all of which are equipped with a square center block at the bridge position - eliminates all possible feedback problems entirely while maintaining its acoustic properties. The center of the top maintains its original thickness, while the rest of the wood is carefully carved away by hand. In this way, there is no tension on the top and therefore there is no tendency to bend and/or deform over time. This method eliminates the need for a center block that covers the entire body length of the guitar needed for stability and to avoid feedback.

Every guitar we build has a completely unique look. The hand polished nitro-cellulose lacquer highlights the individual character of the grain, while maintaining the sound characteristics of the wood.
