The wood used for the top is sitka spruce or cedar. Back + sides are made of rosewood or mahogany. Fretboard, bridge and headplate are made of ebony. Only solid woods are used. The material used for the saddle is bone. The strings are similar to classical wound, silverplated strings and are custom made for us by Pyramid.

A pickup and a tweedcase is included with every instrument.
