E-SPECIAL RED SIGNUM

Unlike most other of our E-Special models, the E-Special Red Signum has a neck made of mahogany instead of maple. Great for players who are looking for a warmer sound. Both its semi-hollow body and the three-piece set neck are hand carved, trimmed with a seven-ply black-and-white binding. Little dots on the side of the neck help you orientate while you play. The Schaller* Signum bridge allows perfect intonation and provides an excellent sustain. Outfitted with nickel Schaller hardware.The six position Free-Way* 3x3-05 toggle switch allows the Häussel P90 pickups to be wired in a standard way as well as in series, in series out phase and parallel out phase.

The tops, backs and necks of our guitars are completely hand carved from solid tone woods. The wood is not laminated and pressed into shape. We very much prefer the tonal qualities of solid wood over laminated wood. The construction of our semi-acoustic guitars - all of which are equipped with a square center block at the bridge position - eliminates all possible feedback problems entirely while maintaining its acoustic properties. The center of the top maintains its original thickness, while the rest of the wood is carefully carved away by hand. In this way, there is no tension on the top and therefore has no tendency to bend and/or deform over time. This method eliminates the need for a center block that covers the entire body length of the guitar needed for stability and to avoid feedback. In addition, the structure and shine of lacquered solid wood is much more evident. Therefore, each guitar we build has a completely unique look. The hand polished nitro-cellulose lacquer highlights the individual character of the grain, while maintaining the sound characteristics of the wood.
