Charlie Hunter Solidbody 8-string
The Charlie Hunter 8-string guitar is a result of the collaborative
design efforts of Charlie Hunter and Ralph Novak. All critical
specifications - scale lengths, electronics and pickups, string
spacing and neck dimensions - are the same as Charlie Hunter's
current instrument. Charlie and Ralph perfected this 8-string
guitar by investing years of careful analysis of numerous
prototypes. This unique instrument allows you to drive the
rhythm section with solid, deep bass while comping or soloing
rich guitar riffs at the same time, live. Both registers have
clarity and tone unmatched by conventionally fretted instruments
thanks to the Fanned-Fret® system. Now, you can explore
new musical horizons offered only by the Charlie Hunter 8-string.
