ēmi ™ is basically the sibling to the Larada. It retains the elegant and ergonomic form of the single cut variant, while offering a more aggressive shape for those who prefer double cut-away body styles. The design is highlighted by the asymmetrical, subtle teardrop-shaped OVIFORM + - ™ neck profile.
The ēmi line features a range of Fishman Fluence pickup configurations, including an S-S-S configuration on the brand new ēmi6, which is a first for Abasi Concepts. We even threw in a tone knob! While ABASI extended range instruments typically feature a multi-scale design with individual string bridges, the 'ēmi 6' and 'ēmi 7' are the answer for the players who prefer a uniform scale length and Gotoh 510 floating tremolo.
This particular ēmi Master Series instrument sports light-weight okoume body, paired with a roasted, figured maple neck, and ebony fingerboard. As always, each piece of wood is hand-selected, with great attention paid to quality, weight, and overall resonance of the instrument.
*** Each piece of wood is unique and will have varying grain patters, color, and frequency. The photos listed are one representation of the particular wood species offered on this guitar and will vary with each instrument.
This guitar is a B-stock item. This is your opportunity to purchase a fully-functional, structurally sound ēmi7 with minor cosmetic flaws at a discount. This guitar was used for a video shoot with Stephen Taranto and has very minor wear on the satin by the strap buttons, as well as a light scratch on the satin portion of the face of the guitar (please refer to closeup picture). These flaws do not compromise the stability or integrity of the guitar in any way. Each B-stock guitar is tested, inspected, and fully covered by our warranty, with the exception of the cosmetic defects.
