The pickups on this cherry-red beauty are alnico classic mini-humbuckers that cover the spectrum from a fairly warm sound on the front pickup, to a biting, almost high-end Tele sound when the back pickup is used with the right amp or pedal. This guitar is a lot of fun to play and to mess around with to see how many cool sounds it will produce, or more accurately, to identify the cool sounds and artists it helped inspire. Roland’s AC-40, with a high-efficiency 35 watt (17.5 W + 17.5 W) stereo power amp, does a great job of delivering the sound of an acoustic guitar, and other acoustic instruments as well, through two 6.5” speakers.
