Seeking a lightweight guitar with traditional tone and performance? The Enlightened Classic 50 is the guitar for you. As part of the Enlightened collection, it features a number of design innovations all focused on delivering light-done-right. This includes the use of a special tone wood on the body -- red cedar. Michael Kelly took that lightweight and great-sounding wood and then customized the body thickness and added small ports to further lighten the instrument while protecting tone. They even used aluminum instead of steel for the bridge and control plate to lighten things up further and to enhance tone.

The pickups have been custom-voiced to perfectly match the Enlightened treatment. These deliver a a classic tone and, thanks to the Quad Mod electronics modification, you get 4 tone settings instead of the typical 3.

At under 6 pounds, the Enlightened Classic 50 is a lightweight guitar, but with all of the other carefully considered design details, it is big on tone and performance.
