This model is built with an aged Olympic White finish over a roasted mahogany body. All wear on the guitar is original to how it's intended to look and feel. The original case and COA is included.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThe Colletti Guitars Speed of Sound™ is an American-made guitar created by Music Zoo founder Tommy Colletti. The Speed of Sound™ is a bolt-on construction instrument featuring the Patent-Pending \"Reso-Link\" - a brass plate which links the body and neck to aid in resonance, sustain and articulation. The 'Reso-Link' is tuned specifically to sonically connect the neck and body to aid in the sympathetic resonance of each note. There's a defined note separation and sparkle added to the tones of the guitar that make it reminiscent of the touch-sensitive response of vintage guitars that have had decades to acclimate as a musical instrument and vibrate as one whole piece.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThe tonewoods of the guitars (fretboards to necks and tops to bodies) are joined together using hot hide glue. The use of hide glue is a process adapted from vintage guitar construction, violin makers, and stringed instruments from decades and centuries past. Hot hide glue adds sustain and brilliance and brings out the natural tonal properties of the wood.\r\n\r\nThe pickups are designed in collaboration with Mark Stow of OX4. The pickups are a blend of some of Tommy and Mark’s favorite original PAF pickups from the late 1950s. This pickup set has a reverse magnet neck pickup to replicate the Peter Green \u0026amp; Gary Moore-owned Burst pickup that has become popular over the last few years. It delivers out-of-phase single coil sounds as well as blistering humbucking tones. The bridge pickup not only takes the best attributes from those early PAFs pickups, but combined with a slightly degaussed Alnico 5 magnet and 42 enamel wire, delivers a sound unmatched in current handmade pickups today. The Speed of Sound™ features high-quality brass hardware and a tremolo design originating in the late '70s. Vintage-accurate cloth-covered 22 gauge wire with authentic paper-in-oil capacitors are used to wire up the instrument.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Tremolo Arm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolidbody Electric Guitar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAged Olympic White Finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9 lbs 2 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e.830\" Neck Thickness at 1st Fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e.940\" Neck Thickness at 12th Fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoasted Mahogany Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColletti Carve 3A Roasted Maple Neck and Indian Rosewood Fretboard with Heavily Rolled Shoulders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHide Glue Construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 Degree Headstock Angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosewood Dot Inlays with Brass Side Dots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25.5\" Scale Length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePyramid Nickel Frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecially-Voiced OX4 Pickups with Reverse Magnet Neck Pickup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMojotone Vintage Taper Volume and Tone Pots with Cloth Wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass Ground and Jack Plates, Legacy Control Cavity, Patent-Pending Reso-Plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmerson Paper in Oil .022 capacitor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Colletti Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46381690159183,"sku":"4112-C","price":3999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0836\/files\/4112-C_Colletti_Speed_of_Sound_1013_1.jpg?v=1786377300","url":"https:\/\/www.themusiczoo.com\/products\/colletti-guitars-speed-of-sound-aged-olympic-white-2023","provider":"The Music Zoo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
