    14 x 5.5 Ebony Burst

Overview

Bit of a rare one this; certainly they don't come up very often. Judging from the badge, production is likely to have been between 2010 and 2012, it's not shown in any catalogue. I'm not 100% sure of the construction, but looking at the shots of Dan Kindness' example, it's more than likely to be maple. There's a possibility that the darker plies could be walnut, but I don't think they are dark enough. Also, it'd be a bit of weird shell construction (Maple, Walnut, Maple, Walnut, Walnut, decorative outer ply) - but not impossible. More digging needed...

Any further information on the origin of this model very much appreciated.
