The Artisan Koa Dual P90 Strat has a chambered one-piece vintage Michigan mahogany body with a figured koa top, finished in Aged Natural lacquer. Two Custom Shop P90 pickups replace the usual three single-coils, on a three-way toggle with one volume and one tone. Chambering takes weight out of the body.
The 3A roasted flame maple neck has a 1960 Oval "C" carve and a round-laminated rosewood fingerboard on a 9.5" to 12" compound radius, with vintage clay dots and 21 Narrow Tall (6105) frets. The bridge is a 6-saddle hardtail with "Pat. Pend." saddles, so there is no tremolo to set up or keep in tune.
For the same P90 layout with a flame maple top and Relic aging, see the Artisan Dual P90 Flame Maple Top Strat Relic. The Artisan Maple Burl Dual P90 Telecaster is the Tele counterpart.
The photos show one example. Wood grain and aging vary from guitar to guitar, so the one built for you will differ in the details.
