Luna FAU HUM Fauna Hummingbird Acoustic-Electric Guitar (Parlor) Feature

  • Abalone Hummingbird & Flower
  • Top: Quilted Maple
  • Back & Sides: Maple
The hummingbird is a symbol of love, joy, and beauty. When the hummingbird hovers over flowers while drinking nectar, we learn that we should savor each moment, and appreciate the things we love. It reminds us that if we find joy in what we do, we become light as a feather, and life is rich with nectar. The hummingbird is also a symbol of great strength as they are able to hover for as much as 50 minutes in one place. Because of this, it symbolizes the ability to accomplish the seemingly impossible. Luna Guitars' iridescent Hummingbird hovers at the sound hole drawing nectar from a pink abalone flower. It's petite parlor size body includes a B-band preamp system and, like it's namesake, is powerful beyond expectation.

DR Strings Zebra - Acoustic-Electric Round Core 11-50

DR Strings Zebra - Acoustic-Electric Round Core 11-50 Review



DR Strings Zebra - Acoustic-Electric Round Core 11-50 Feature

  • 11-50
ZEBRA? electric-acoustics! Yes, for acoustic-electric guitars with piezo pick-ups under the bridge... or magnetic pickups in the sound hole. Any amplified acoustic comes alive when you put on the ZEBRA? strings. Revolutionary because no one has ever done this before, and no one else does it yet. It is the very first string where you can see the difference. Every other coil is nickel-plated steel, every other coil is RARE? phosphor bronze... wound on hex cores. Gauges: .011; .015; .022; .030; .040; .050

The pickups are laid out in such a way as to achieve clear reproduction even during high-position soloing. Finishes for the Yamaha APX700-12 Acoustic-Electric Guitar include Natural, and Black.

    Taylor DMSM Dave Matthews Signature Model Acoustic-Electric Guitar Bundle with Stand, Leather Strap, Strings, String Winder, Pick Card, and Polishing Cloth

    Taylor DMSM Dave Matthews Signature Model Acoustic-Electric Guitar Bundle with Stand, Leather Strap, Strings, String Winder, Pick Card, and Polishing Cloth Review



    Taylor DMSM Dave Matthews Signature Model Acoustic-Electric Guitar Bundle with Stand, Leather Strap, Strings, String Winder, Pick Card, and Polishing Cloth Feature

    • Type/Shape: 6-String Grand Auditorium
    • Back & Sides: Indian Rosewood
    • Top: Sitka Spruce
    • Neck: Tropical American Mahogany
    • Fretboard: Ebony
    Bundle includes Taylor DMSM Dave Matthews Signature Model Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Stand, Leather Strap, Strings, String Winder, Pick Card, and Polishing Cloth.

    Inspired by Dave Matthews' 914ce, the DMSM is an Indian rosewood/Sitka spruce Grand Auditorium. A custom fretboard inlay blends elements of the popular "Cindy" inlay, which graces Matthews' 914ce, with a design that pays tribute to the band's longtime sax player, LeRoi Moore, who passed away in 2008. Based on a sketch that Matthews provided, a crown inlay between the 11th and 12th frets honors Moore, incorporating ball-tipped points with one ball partially missing in his memory. A nickname of Moore's within the band, "Grux," is inlaid between the 13th and 18th frets. The headstock inlay also was developed from a sketch by Matthews. The guitar top was shaded with an aged toner to approximate the patina Matthews has on his older 914ce. Each DMSM comes with a custom guitar label and a certificate of authenticity, both personally signed by Matthews.
