The Fret-King Elise is carved from one solid mahogany block, topped with a double-carved maple cap and loaded with WVC Vari-coil humbuckers for versatility.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Chambered mahogany body Rich, warm, focused sound; semi-hollow tone
Mahogany neck Great sustain, strength, and warm tone
Rosewood fretboard Open, warm tone and smooth playing feel
Fret-King WVC double coils pickups Thick, powerful humbucker tone; clear definiton

Carved from a solid mahogany blank, the Fret-King Elise body has acoustically tuned chambers, a full length center block, and double carved solid maple cap to create a vibrant semi acoustic body.

The slick mahogany neck, with deluxe rosewood fingerboard, employs the Fret-King long-tenon neck joint, which mates precisely to the body underneath the neck pickup, forming a rigid fixed bond between neck and body, maximizing the retention and transmission of the Elise's fundamental acoustic properties.

Fret-King WVC double coils give the Elise a voice with unassailable authenticity, definition and the power required for everything from mellow jazz to full bore blues. Fitted with the Fret-King Vari-coil, the WVCs can be progressively wound back to emulate a P90, or produce sparkling traditional single coil tone. The Elise sounds just like it looks, and then produces voicings never associated with this style of guitar, but which would be at home on Ocean Boulevard or a Nashville `Honkey Tonk'.
