The Expression semi-hollowbody series is designed to deliver the sweet, warm, round attack of a hollowbody instrument while retaining the sustain and feedback resistance of a solidbody. Additionally, the gracefully arched top, figured woods, and matching body and fretboard binding pay tribute to the classic hollowbody aesthetic, and the lighter weight is a bonus. The Expression semi-hollowbody series features optional piezo saddle transducers with a magnetic/piezo stereo preamp for an amazingly rich acoustic-electric sound.

The body is crafted of mahogany, with a fully chambered interior, and your choice of top wood: spruce, for a warm, smooth tone with a “woody” character, lacewood for a smooth tone with more “bounce”, highly figured walnut for a more pronounced attack with a big midrange, or highly figured maple for a snappier attack with strong highs.
