It carries the MF5's carved Adirondack spruce top, Eastern flamed maple back, sides and neck, ivoroid binding with black and white side purfling on the top, back, fingerboard and peghead, and the mother-of-pearl Flourish peghead inlay, all under high gloss nitrocellulose lacquer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe oval hole changes the build underneath: X-bracing in place of tone bars, a 1 3\/16\" nut and a flatter 7\" to 11 5\/8\" compound radius.
