Sound Pure's Take

This one has the nicest quilt maple top I have ever seen on any guitar. zoom in on the photos for detail. Crazy good!

What a breath of fresh air! I am over the moon about this unique nylon string from John Buscarino. The thin body aids to extended playing. you're arm won't get tired slung over this beauty! The wood choices are beautiful. Everyone at the shop has been drooling over this top! and tone? bold, clear, sustain for days, piano-like response. Such a pleasure to play and hear. I plugged in to the Acoustic Image Ten2 amp and did not have to tweak the EQ to get an incredible sound. It was down-right scary how good thing guitar sounds on the flat EQ settings.

It's an honor to have such an amazing nylon string guitar at the SoundPure Guitar Boutique. Call or Email for more info

From Buscarino Guitars

The Starlight Nylon is a Thin Body Electric Acoustic Classical Guitar. Starting with a one piece body of Swamp Ash a sound chamber is created by hollowing out the inside of the body. The sound chamber helps produce some acoustic tone unplugged which allows the player to hear the guitar in practice situations or other settings where plugging in is undesirable and adds a more natural tone when plugged in. The Top is braced using a Lattice bracing pattern which helps to strengthen the top and give a little more punch to the acoustic tone. The bolt on neck with our exclusive DeadBolt Neck Joint Design gives you that neck thru body feel with the convenience of a bolt on neck. The heel is rounded and smooth making the gutiar more confortable to play and gives easier access to the upper frets. The DeadBolt Neck Joint adds superior strength to the Neck and increased sustain to your tone. The pickup is the Barbera Soloist which has a clear and natural sound, reduced string noise, a high threshold before feedfack and perfect string balance. Perfect for large band applications or any setting where more volume is needed.
