The arch-top is cold formed and hardened from 99% pure 1100 aluminum, for the most obtainable warmth, with the lowest decibel aluminum resonance physically possible. Dimensionally perfected to classic carve-top proportions, the arch-top is fused to durable .09” thick 6061 aircraft grade aluminum sides and back, for a higher decibel tone balance with the added advantage of incredible strength and impact resistance.

For extra percussive crunch and resonance control, both pickup positions are internally backed with nitrocellulose lacquered Honduran mahogany chambers. These innovative chambers are designed for high overdrive hard rock players, and provide excellent feedback control, with a warm hybrid-blend of aluminum resonance through Mahogany.

By simply removing the 4 screws of each pickup ring during a string change, the center portions of these chambers can be removed. Removal of these Mahogany chamber “plugs” allows the arch-top to attain its fullest potential: for a deep, infinite sustain under overdriven conditions, and a rich array of crystal-clear low and high tones that no other instruments can naturally achieve. Our Alnico ‘V’ humbuckers are slightly over-wound and balanced specifically for classic to heavy rock for chambered guitars.Classic-59 type windings are available and recommended for non chambered bodies for Jazz, Blues, Classic rock and Fusion type players.
The incredibly versatile 1100-Custom Guitar can be customized with optional pickups wired with detachable micro plugs. AlumiSonic provides all commercially available pickups, with a micro plug pre-installed for easy changeability.
