A classic design with alternative timbers. European Maple with a Cedar top,  Maple neck laminated with Ebony,  and Ebony bindings to match.  Very simple but very effective. The combination of Maple and Cedar is unusual, we used it quite often in the 1970’s and it always produced the very best sounding guitars. Many people describe Maple as being "bright" sounding,  I don’t think it is, I think "lively" is a better description. Not the same thing at all. The Cedar top helps that along nicely, and I think adds just enough warmth to produce a very balanced tone.
