DQ-NYE (take two)
D' Aquisto New Yorker Electric Guitar
Last month I special-ordered a new Almond color model (here's the blog entry), but it turns out this model is currently not in production, so that order was terminated. I searched high and low for another good deal and found a Natural color model from birdlandmusic.net in Leeds, NY. Not quite as sweet of a deal but hopefully it will arrive soon and pass inspection.
Aria USA carries on the tradition of late master guitar builder James D'Aquisto with there new D'Aquisto series of jazz guitars. Each guitar features a seventeen inch wide, full acoustic body, binding and a solid sitka spruce arched top. These are truly some of the the finest arch-top hollowbody jazz guitars in the world. D'Aquisto guitars are now made exclusively by Aria.
D'Aquisto guitars feature modern classic styling, unassailable workmanship and deep, rich tones that rival any jazzer made today. DQ-NYE has a classic jazz look and sound with a 1 piece Maple neck, adjustable bridge, 22 fret Ebony fingerboard with ivory binding, an original floating humbucking pickup with a volume and tone control on the pickguard, pearl inlays and Schaller, M6 22K Gold plated tuning machineheads. Includes free D'Aquisto hardshell case.
