Description

The Elite is the crown jewel in our Heritage solid body lineup. The Elite features a unique single cutaway body design with a contoured back and crescent neck junction allowing better access to the top of the fingerboard and lessening the overall weight of the guitar. The Elite features nearly every high-end appointment that the discerning player might want to see. The Elite is built with a solid Mahogany body, topped off with a solid 3/4 inch carved slab of Canadian quilted maple with a Blue Burst finish. To properly accent this stunning top, we added a rectangular Mother of Pearl and abalone inlay design on a bound ebony fingerboard, and 3 stripe binding on the top of the body. As if that weren’t rich enough, we topped it off with all nickel hardware and a pair of Seymour Duncan Humbuckers, ’59 in the neck and a JB in the bridge. The Elite remains in a class all its own.

    From the perfect finish to the playability and tone, this is a fantastic buy! For this price, you can get a studio (Work truck) or you can get this jacked-up 4X4 that’s fully loaded beast WITH a very nice case. One of the best setup guitars, right out of the box, I’ve ever had. The nickel hardware is a sweet choice by Prestige. To me, adds a layer of class. Oh, and the case, love it. The surface of the case sort of looks like a weave.
