3 body sizes, ASAP, ASAPJ and ASAP Jumbo with choice of cedar or sitka spruce tops and mahogany or walnut backs and sides with wood bindings in standard form. Many other wood options.
The ASAP with it's small body is an ideal fingerpicker, the ASAPJ has a deeper body and is 'strummier' while the ASAP Jumbo gives the big sound.
Laminated maple and mahogany neck with veneer detail.
For the six string versions, a choice of two different top bracings. Fine and scalloped for an open, balanced sound. Reflective and scalloped for a more focussed projected sound.
The ASAP 12 string and ASAP B (acoustic bass guitar) share the Jumbo sized body with double X bracing.
The ASAP and ASAPJ are available as nylon string models with a choice of classical or lightened X bracing.
The Highlander pickup and preamp is the electro option. To my ears, the most natural, even, flat response of any pickup I have tried. I have also fitted RMC saddles when MIDI is required and the Fishman Rare Earth is a good soundhole pickup.
