Carrera DS

The design is based on padauk’s blazing red color. The thickness of the top is adjusted including the pick guard. Spanish style through-neck construction with a very thin heel at the joint, beveled cutaway and so on. I pursue its playability and sound. It even keeps on evolving.

Beta-titanium truss rod. It is lighter and springier than the titanium truss rod I used before.
It specially works on the weight balance of the neck.
