Heritage Guitar - Ascent Collection H-137 Vintage Cherry

In this Vintage Cherry colour, the H-137 takes on a more traditional look that highlights its classic lines. This finish fits in well with the philosophy of the Ascent series, which is to create a guitar that is straightforward, without unnecessary complexity, but capable of responding to a variety of playing situations. The okoume body contributes to this approach, offering a good compromise between lightness and homogeneous sound response.

This choice of wood produces a balanced sound, with a strong midrange and well-defined attack. The soundstage remains open enough to retain clarity in clean sound, while maintaining stability when the gain is increased. This versatility makes it easy to integrate into different styles, without the need for complex adjustments.

The maple neck is screwed to the body for an immediate, responsive feel. Its C-shaped profile remains accessible and comfortable, making it easy to move around. The laurel fingerboard, with its 12" radius, complements this feel by providing a stable surface for chords and sufficient flexibility for more expressive techniques.

The electronics are based on a classic configuration, with two humbuckers and an easy-to-use circuit. The controls allow you to adjust the level and tone quickly and straightforwardly, in keeping with the spirit of this series. The wraparound bridge completes the package with a reliable, efficient design that ensures good vibration transmission.

This Vintage Cherry version is for those looking for a guitar that's accessible, balanced and easy to play, with an aesthetic inspired by historical models.
