The top is solid spruce and the back and sides are laminate mahogany. The neck is mahogany, with a roseacer fretboard (that's thermally treated maple).

The model also features scalloped x-bracing to improve the movement of the guitar's soundboard (top) and enhance bass response.

The onboard is the Harley Benton HB-03 preamp with integrated tuner and three-band EQ as well as volume control.
