Hoag Instruments Introduces The TRAD 60 Electric Guitar

Traditional barriers are not broken, just bent a little. The TRAD 60 has kept that "old guitar feeling" in tact, but incorporated Hoag optical pickups that react at the speed of light. This faster response offers cleaner sound and will respond to your slightest touch.

Because there are no magnetic fields and mechanical devices slowing down the string movement, the sustain and harmonics are enhanced. Strings of any type can be intermixed: steel, bronze, nylon, etc. Each type of string has its own overtone component and will be reproduced by the optical pickup.

The frequency response is from few hertz to well over 100khz.

Features:

• The neck is maple with maple or rosewood 22 fret board
• The body is made of select hardwoods and colors will be offered
• The hardware will be chrome and/or black
• The pickup is placed at the bridge for best harmonic content
• The power supply and cable assembly are included

Each guitar will be assembled with import and domestic parts at Hoag Instruments Custom Shop. The price will be $595 plus shipping.
