ESSEX SX ASH2H-NA ELECTRIC GUITAR
The inspiration behind the SX ASH2H-NA electric guitar is obvious but SX have taken the offset double cutaway ‘SC’ type concept one step further with its semi-hollow construction.
The gorgeous Louisiana Swamp Ash body features a precision cut ‘F’ hole on it’s upper bout. As well as reducing weight, the semi-hollow design makes this an extremely versatile guitar.
Three single coil pickups and a five way selector switch offers classic single coil tones in positions 1, 3 and 5. High gain tones are tamed with positions 2 and 4. Overall, the SX ASH2H-NA works equally well for rock, country, funk, blues or jazz.
Hard Canadian Maple is used for the neck and fingerboard – the fingerboard features 21 Nickel Silver frets.
At this price this guitar represents outstanding value.
PRO-SCM SETUP
While the quality of this instrument shines through in spades, we like to think of our inhouse Pro-SCM setup as icing on the cake. Our skilled Guitar Technicians will check and adjust anything that requires attention. Our Pro-SCM setup includes:
• Check and adjust the action to factory specifications
• Check and rectify any buzzing, intonation or playability issues
• Check and adjust the nut and bridge string heights
• Hand roll the fret ends and polish the frets
• Test electronics, pots and switches for correct function
• Inspect instrument construction and condition of the strings
• Ensure mechanical devices work properly including tremelo systems and tuners
