Seller's description

Designed with the vibrant musical, artistic, and architectural backdrop of San Diego’s North County in mind—think surfing, skateboards, and classic cars—the new Powers Electric A-Type model blends these influences and aesthetics to provide players with a new tool to enrich and inspire their creative expression. Comprised almost entirely of parts made in-house, each Powers Electric guitar requires labor-intensive craftsmanship, meaning they can only be produced in small numbers.Style Inspired by the lines of classic cars, hot rods, and surfboard design, the Powers Electric A-Type guitar sports an asymmetrical shape, without sacrificing visual balance. Featuring timeless styling and modern embellishments, the resulting model is a trussed, slim hollowbody design, for which—like a surfboard or roadster—every line was considered, both for its looks and its handling.As if the aesthetic links to Southern California’s surfboard culture weren’t clear enough, the colorful knobs and vibrato arm cap on each A-Type guitar are shop-crafted in-house from layers of surfboard resin, which originally was a byproduct of the surfboard glassing process—and, as a result, no two resin knobs look exactly alike!Feel Made to be held with ease, the A-Type is lightweight and perfectly balanced whether played standing or sitting, with contoured armrests and radiused body edges for additional playing comfort.Not to be confused with an end-to-end compound radius, the A-Type’s Honduras rosewood fretboard features a split radius—meaning it’s asymmetrical from the bass side to the treble side, with the treble side slightly flatter all the way from the first fret down to the end (i.e. up to the highest fret, where the fretboard meets the body), for easy, better-sounding string bends.Body ArchitectureEach Powers Electric A-Type features an Urban Ash hollowbody trussed with two internal soundposts fitted into a braced, solid maple top—similar to the soundpost in a violin—which allows the front and back
