Roasted Maple Neck and Roasted Mahogany Body: The roasted maple neck provides excellent stability and a gorgeous caramel finish. The mahogany wood used on the body is also roasted for stronger mids and slightly lighter weight. Bone Nut: Bone is a harder natural material and is preferred by many luthiers for high-end instruments due to its durability and natural lubricity. Hand Polished Stainless Steel Frets: Stainless steel frets provide unparalleled durability and a smooth playing surface that is large and easy to bend. The ends of each fret are also hand dressed for playing comfort. U to C Compound Neck Profile and Compound Radius: The SSS features a unique U to C compound neck profile with thicker shoulders on the lower frets, slimmer Cs, and taller frets. In addition to a 7.25" to 9.5" compound fingerboard radius, the SSS offers excellent playability for both chords and solos.
