Archtop tenor guitars from the 30s and 40s were often little more
than a tenor neck stuck on a standard six string guitar body. The result was
usually an outsized, overbuilt, and under-responsive instrument with little
volume and a thin, nasal sound. VERONICA, on the other hand, is designed to
be a tenor guitar. The body cavity is correctly sized to respond to tenor
tuning, to maximize power and improve tone. The instrument has the throaty
“thunk” you’d expect from an archtop rhythm guitar, as well as a sweet, clear
tone when playing single notes. VERONICA is also available as a cutaway in a
standard clear blonde finish, or a deluxe sunburst with block inlays. A Kent
Armstrong humbucker pickup, mounted to the pickguard, with a volume control
and endpin jack (as shown below) is also available.

w/blonde finish, dot inlays –$4750
sunburst finish –add $350
block inlays –add $250
neck and headstock binding –add $250
cutaway –add $500
Kent Armstrong pick-up system –add $250
