Additional Features
Scallop Fretboard $90.00: The scallop fretboard has cut away arches underneath to create less contact with the soundboard. This creates better volume and a richer open tone in the instrument.
Ebony Overlay $35.00: The ebony overlay on a fretboard increases the strength and durability of the fretboard surface.
Rosewood Overlay $30.00: Is another excellent material for fretboard protection.
Double Back $200.00: A second (double) back increases volume and tone quality by eliminating the deadening effects of the instrument having direct contact with the player's body.
