Essential Information About the "Artisan Dual P90 Koa Strat NOS Aged Natural" Guitar
- Custom Shop Dual P90s with a 3-position selector and "Fat '50s" wiring for a vintage, punchy, and ultra-dynamic tone.
- Thin Kalamazoo Vintage mahogany body topped with a flamed 4A koa top: warmth, definition, and elegant projection.
- 3A roasted flamed maple neck and "Round-lam" rosewood fingerboard with a compound radius of 9.5" to 12" / 241.3 to 304.8 mm for modern comfort.
- Vintage hardware (tortoiseshell button tuners, fixed bridge with "Pat. Pend." saddles) and NOS finish with a naturally aged look.
An "Artisan" Piece Combining Exceptional Woods and Vintage Craftsmanship
From a lineage that values noble tonewoods and lutherie inspired by the golden years, this "Strat" blends the luxurious aesthetics of flamed koa with a clean and efficient construction. The subtly "aged" NOS finish replicates the patina of time while preserving the wood's natural resonance.
Who Is It For and What Styles?
Designed for intermediate to expert guitarists, it excels in blues, rock, soul, funk, indie, and modern pop. The P90s provide a clear attack and singing mids: tame enough for dynamic clean playing, they gain a nice thickness in crunch/overdrive without excessive compression.
The Sound
The mahogany body + koa top delivers warm low-mids and refined highs. The P90s offer a harmonically rich range with a percussive attack and sustain supported by the vintage fixed bridge. The "Fat '50s" wiring promotes an organic response and silky highs when slightly rolling back the volume. The 3-position selector switches from the bridge pickup's bite to the neck pickup's roundness, with a middle position featuring the typical woody twang of P90s.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
Install a set of nickel 10-46 electric guitar strings to balance attack and flexibility. An adjustable capo for 9.5"-12" radius will perfectly fit the compound fingerboard. Add a sturdy strap and standard strap locks to secure the instrument on stage. Since a luxury hard case is included, a lightweight electric guitar gig bag can complement your gear for everyday transport.
