A real head turner, ideal for the more accomplished player.
This beauty features a wonderfully figured burl walnut resonator with a spellbinding marbled grain pattern, combined with a classic walnut rim and neck. Tonally articulate thanks to the walnut tonewoods, the Empress will impress visually and aurally at every turn.
