This is the most traditional way for curving the top and back of an archtop.

Top and back plates are hand carved and very carefully graduated through their surface, using different kind of chisels and techniques. We curve the back and the top plate especially (with the help of its bracing), in such a way, that they transmit vibrations evenly through their entire surface.

In the final stages of back and top curving, we enter into one of the most crucial procedures that will define the sound qualities of the guitar, the so called “tap tone tuning”. We carefully remove tiny parts of wood adjusting the wood thickness, checking contiguously by taping in specific areas of the back and top plate, until we achieve the “tuning” of both woods in the desired key.

Using these tuned pieces in the construction, the guitar can produce a louder, more resonant primary tone and rich over tones.

Our Fremediti tailpiece suspension is a patented original design that contributes to the playability of the guitar.

Each string has its own specific individual suspension spring, that works in parallel to the tailpiece, resulting in a much "lighter" feeling on the strings, especially on string bends. Further to that this, the tailpiece suspension mechanism does not have any contact with the soundboard, allowing it to vibrate and “breath” effortlessly, preserving this way the acoustic characteristics of the guitar.

Our Fremediti tailpiece is machined from titanium alloy, providing added stability and reduced weight.

Finally, a handcrafted ebony with exotic top cover, adds to the classic aesthetics of the guitar.

Height adjustable ebony bridge with a specially undersaddle Fishman acoustic piezo pickup and 1/8” width ebony saddle.

The 1/8”ebony saddle width allows the achievement of a perfect intonation by giving the exact shape at the point of each string.

A system designed to manage the choice of acoustic or electric sounds as well as the unlimited possibilities of mixing them.

Additionally, the system provides an acoustic pickup face selector, separate tone control for acoustic and electric sounds as well as a master volume control.

We wanted to offer an impeccable aesthetic appearance to our top of the line archtop and hollow-body models.

Our Eumelia and Polymnia, as well as Amphion AC and Euphony AC, come with wooden bindings, multiply wooden purfling, multiply veneers and strips in every possible area.

The same aesthetic detailed craft is applied also to the f-holes of the above models.

Our deluxe hard case is handmade from laminated wood and covered with beautiful dark brown leatherette.

The interior of the case is covered with a quality protective velvet textile that is nitrocellulose lacquer friendly. This case is tailored to the exact size of our archtop models.

A hygrometer is incorporated so you can control the humidity level inside the case.

This highly protective deluxe hard-case comes as standard with any of our archtop models.
