The Artwood Vintage series now showcases another vintage element by applying an ¶ô?aging¶ô? process to the tonewood ¶ô?¶ô? Thermo Aged¶ô? ¶ô?tone wood, made by a special drying process at a high temperature which is commonly known as ¶ô?baking¶ô? or ¶ô?torrefaction¶ô?. Only choice selected and seasoned tone wood can be cured to Thermo Aged¶ô? wood. The wood is heated in a vacuum with a specific recipe for each kind of the wood in order to release water and decompose resin contained within the wood. As a result, Thermo Aged¶ô? tone wood becomes light, hard and stable like tone wood dried for decades, while providing amazing response and a louder sound. The tone character includes a full-bodied low-end and a great smooth sustain in the treble strings which are common features of vintage guitars. The AVN11-ABS features the Thermo Aged¶ô? Solid Caucasian Spruce Top which also delivers a vintage feel dry sound. Furthermore, a semi gloss antique finish offers even more of a vintage appearance. Combined with a Mahogany back and Thermo Aged¶ô? Spruce X bracing, the AVN11-ABS provides a wide open resonant sound with a vivid tone projection. The mahogany soft-V shape neck in satin finish with a Ovangkol fretboard provide greater playing comfort. An unbleached bone nut and saddle were chosen for their ability to transfer the string vibration naturally. Parlor body ¶ô?¶ô?634mm/25" scale ¶ô?¶ô?12th fret joint ¶ô?¶ô?Thermo Aged¶ô?
