The Ashburn (named after my daughter, Ashley) has a double-cutaway, 13” lower bout body, and an Eastern Hard Maple neck available with multiple fretboard options that feature a 12” radius and 22 Jescar .047” x .095” Nickel Silver frets. The machine screw and threaded Brass insert neck-to-body fastening method not only gives an amazingly strong mechanical bond, but also adds a beautiful complexity to the overtones. The instrument also features my bass-justified top dots for improved playing visibility and front and back contours for playing comfort. The core model Ashburn has a vintage style 6-saddle tremolo bridge, 3 S-style single coil pickups with reversed bridge pickup angle, master volume and tone controls, and a 5-position lever switch.
