Eko Original Aire Relic - sunburst
EKO Original Aire Relic (Sunburst) solid body electric guitar is designed for the modern pop-rock guitarist. It features a Pawlonia body, Roasted American Maple neck and Eko WPC fingerboard.
The pickup configuration is HSS with the humbucker splitable to Single-Coil, the bridge is a Wilkinson with tremolo lever and the fingerboard is 24 frets.
Light as a feather, killer looks and great tone, Paulownia has it all. This fast-growing tree has been popular in the East for centuries. It is a lot more sustainable and cheaper than swamp ash and it is now also planted and harvested in Europe. For these reasons Paulownia is becoming a perfect alternative to Swamp Ash.
Stable and very resonant, it gives a striking amount of volume. Nice warm mids, clear lows and never ever annoying shrill highs. It doesn't have the ice pickiness Swamp Ash sometimes has. It sits right between Swamp Ash and Alder.
Fretboard is made of WPC, an acronym for Wood Plastic Composite. It combines recycled natural wood fibers, plastic, polymers and additives.
Environmentally friendly approach of using waste wood and recycled plastic material is not its only virtue, generating great sounds in between Maple and Ebony.
