This premium 485w features an Adirondack top decorated with a Honduras Rosewood and abalone rosette, paired with a deep rich coloured set of Honduras Rosewood, topped off with premium flamed maple, abalone and Tasmanian blackwood appointments.

The unique X/Fan bracing pattern helps deliver strong projection and clarity of notes across the range, and can be suitable for fingerstyle or plectrum playing with its 58mm string spacing at the bridge.

The upgraded Gotoh 510 1:21 tuners in gold add a touch of elegance, which is complimented by the simple floral designed inlays at the headstock, 12th fret, and bottom of the guitar. The guitar is finished with Osmo oil and wax, producing a soft, satin sheen which feels beautiful on the neck to play, but also helps keep the instrument light and resonant.

It also features our elegant pinless bridge design in ebony, which matches up with the bound ebony fretboard and head veneers.

The flamed maple binding is complimented with a Tasmanian blackwood centre strip, heel cap and inlays on the guitar.

Another upgrade is the cryowire fret wire, which is treated to make them harder wearing than traditional nickel silver wire.

All of this is included with a JKM branded Hiscox Pro II Hard case.
