Combining a maple top layer and spruce bottom layer with a more focused chambering design, the redesigned Channel Core™ center block provides faster note attack and enhanced midrange punch that takes this Limited Edition Falcon Jr. guitar to a whole new level. The TV Jones® TV Classic™ neck pickup provides clean, compressed highs and mids with a tight and controlled low-end, while the TV Classic Plus™ bridge pickup bring a little more attitude to the party with a slightly rounder top end and higher output, making this a versatile combination that can cover a lot of sonic territory.
