The new 34-inch-scale A5 Plus SC sports a figured poplar burl top on a swamp ash body, five-piece maple-and-panga-panga neck and panga panga fingerboard.

There’s also a Hipshot TransTone Bridge, Hipshot Ultralite Tuners and Bartolini MK-1 pickups and preamp with three-band EQ and switchable active/passive mode.
