Peerless Tonemaster JH Special Sunburst Hollow Body Electric Guitar

This is a Peerless Tonemaster JH Special Hollow Body Electric Guitar in Sunburst finish. Made in Korea, this hollow-body guitar features a set-neck construction consisting of a Maple body with Spruce top, Maple neck and 20 fret Ebony fingerboard. Other appointments include a Bigsby Tremolo and Grover tuning machines. A trio of P90 “Dogear” pickups are fitted and wired to a 3-way pickup selector and independent volume and tone controls.

The Maple neck plays very well, with a profile resembling a Slim ‘C’ filling the hand nicely for a substantial grip when chord playing, yet remaining slim enough for fast, articulate playing. The Gloss finish to the rear is pleasant to the touch and assists with smooth navigation of the 25.5” scale. The Ebony fingerboard provides a tactile and durable playing surface across the register, and with its 14” radius is practical for both chordal and melodic playing styles. The smooth lines of the body feel great in the arms, ensuring comfort in both standing and seated positions.

The hollow construction of this guitar means that it resonates and sustains very well. It produces an airy tone with an unpronounced yet well defined low end, detailed upper midrange and sparkly high frequencies. The trio of P90 “Dogear” pickups sound fantastic, offering a far hotter output than your typical single coil pickup but still retaining a more raw and punchy sound than a Humbucker. These pickups combined with the resonant sound of the hollow Maple body, Spruce top, and Bigsby make this an incredibly versatile instrument, suitable for a wide range of styles and players.
