The Volmaster is the result of an acoustic builder and an electric builder sitting down together to find the best of both worlds, and it shows: a beautiful black walnut top with a special iron-aging finish on front and back, built by hands that know exactly what makes an instrument disappear in your hands. Every detail just feels right. It's light enough to play a full night of gigs without a second thought, comfortable from the first strum, and versatile enough to move between styles without missing a beat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuild \u0026amp; Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Paulownia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop: Black walnut, with special iron-aging finish on front and back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard: Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadplate: Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickups: TV Jones Super'Tron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrets: Stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize \u0026amp; Feel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 24.75\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: ~4.5 lbs — remarkably light and comfortable for long gigs and long practice sessions alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSound Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e The Super'Tron's steel blades create a larger magnetized surface area, which increases inductance. Although its DC resistance matches the TV Classic, the Super'Tron delivers slightly more output, added body, and a subtly emphasized lower-midrange. It's warmer and less aggressive than the mid-'60s Gretsch Super'Trons, which used multiple thin laminated blades rather than a single solid piece of steel. This pickup excels at fingerstyle, jazz, punk, blues, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn Good Company\u003c\/strong\u003e According to Paul Yandell, this early pickup design was a favorite of Chet Atkins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned and built through a collaboration between master acoustic and electric luthiers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA genuinely new design — the kind of instrument that feels like it should have existed all along\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWood \u0026amp; Wire is the exclusive dealer for this model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-of-a-kind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes hardshell case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn stock now at Wood \u0026amp; Wire.
