Based on the popular “Gatto” model, the deluxe flame version utilizes our unique body shape, but adds classic American aesthetics and control placement, like jumbo frets, slimmer neck, figured top under sunburst and an upper horn located control switch. Outfitted with Dual Hanson Classic Humbuckers, bound Mahogany body and set neck, the “Gatto Deluxe Flame” delivers powerful punch and versatility. It absolutely screams when pushing a tube amp into overdrive, with defined lead tone that really stands out. Activate the push/pull tone control switch for single coil operation and you’ve got amazing shimmer that works very well with swirly and echo effects like univibes, leslies, tape echoes, you get the picture.
The “Gatto Deluxe Flame” also features a 22 Fret Rosewood board, and a TonePros Tune-o-matic fixed bridge and stop tailpiece for maximum sustain and stability while bending.
