The front plate of the Elite 2078AX-1 is made of solid Sitka spruce of AA quality. The resonance of the top is enhanced by the placement and shape of the sound holes, the reduced X-type front plate ribbing and the thin lacquer layer. The rest of the body is an arched deep Lyrachord hi-tech body that maximizes volume and all positive acoustic effects.
Another interesting feature is the bevelled fingerboard design, which offers seventeen frets on the thickest bass string, while on the thinnest string you have five more frets. The strings themselves are mounted in an ebony fingerboard and enclosed in the company's die-cast mechanicals with gold-coloured tuning pins. The quality of the workmanship is accentuated by pearl position markers on the ebony fingerboard, wooden soundhole tabs and ivory imitation body binding.
Also worth mentioning is the OP-Pro Studio preamplifier, which is equipped with a built-in compressor. This keeps the dynamics of your playing at bay and perfectly enhances strumming or solos.
