• One-piece body and carbon-glass-epoxy reinforced neck for light weight
  
• Magnetic and piezo pickups and preamp for full tonal spectrum

Delivers premium electric and acoustic tones
Truly a one-of-a-kind guitar, the Fly Artist is capable of producing everything from biting electric lead sounds to bell-like acoustic tones. Its dual pickup system employs the best DiMarzio designs for magnetic pickups plus Fishman piezo elements.

One-piece body and carbon-glass-epoxy reinforced neck for light weight
The Fly Artist is made from a single piece of solid, vertical-grain, old growth Sitka stpruce, which showcases and enriches the piezos more than any other body material. The 24-fret reinforced basswood neck reinforced with carbon-glass-epoxy resin completes the sonic equation, creating thicker, warmer, moe complex tones and a gigantic bottom end that will send your music to new levels of luscious crush. Truly in a class by itself, the Fly Artist will draw out and display your musicianship. The sound and strength belie the Fly Artist's amazing 4 1/2 lb. weight. The "wide regular" neck shape and a fretboard coated with .020" carbon-glass-epoxy makes for easy playability.

Custom DiMarzio magnetic and Fishman piezo pickups and preamp
Dual DiMarzio magnetic pickups in an HH configuration with a push-pull coil tap draw out the Fly Artist's electric qualities. The amazing acoustic sound of the Fly Artist is due the 6-element Fishman piezo system, married to a Fishman-designed active preamp. The piezo tones are the most natural and transparent that you'll find anywhere. A 3-way Mag/Piezo selector switch lets you combine tones. The Fly Artist's output can be split stereo or summed mono, with a "Smart Switching" jack that automatically senses the connector type.
