It's body receives a single ply of cream binding to accent the black top. To amplify its voice, an L.R. Baggs Element Bronze under-saddle piezo pickup offers easy plug and play accessibility and delivers clear, studio grade balanced sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTopped with a rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl dot inlays and 20 standard frets, a utile neck is attached to the body with a compound dovetail joint and is glued in place using hot hide glue.
