Manufacturer's description

With a body style familiar to the eye, the Vintage AV3 is carved from a solid block of premium mahogany, resulting in a reduced weight acoustically chambered body, with solid centre block for awesome sustain and tone.

Combining these features with the elegant and comfortable Vintage family offset cutaway body shape, the AV3 is a real player's guitar, and definitely one of the stars of the AV range. Including a hand-carved solid maple top with flame maple veneer, the AV3 offers unparalleled features and value.

Providing performance and sonic characteristics similar to a solid body electric guitar yet offering all the tone and versatility of the traditional semi acoustic, the Vintage AV3 could be the best of all worlds, really. Its two Wilkinson WVC nickel-covered humbucking pickups are controlled by master volume, master tone, and unique Vintage 'Roll Control' for humbucking mode to single coil operation – a truly versatile system which gives you, the guitar player, the best choice of all tones from this stylish, high performance guitar.
