It has a single cutaway body style with a large waist, and the body and neck are made of carefully selected African mahogany, and the fingerboard is made of ebony.
It has a 635mm scale, set neck joint, and medium-sized 24 frets.
The aluminum alloy plate on the top of the body has a leaf pattern typical of Zemaitis, as well as engravings of playing cards and coins, and features a classic look, such as a design with the words "A. C. ZEMAITIS SINCE 1955" engraved to indicate tradition.
Equipped with Zemaitis' original aluminum alloy bridge and tailpiece, these are the elements that create Zemaitis' unique tone.
Similarly, the diamond emblem on the head, truss rod cover, tailpiece, pickup ring, output jack plate, and control and switch back plate are all made of aluminum alloy.
The pickups are equipped with two metal covered type Dragon Classic humbuckers, and the control uses the well-established CTS pot, with a layout of each pickup volume and each pickup tone.
It has a Switchcraft 3-way pickup selector switch, and uses Orange Drop tone capacitors.
We have also introduced a treble bleed circuit that allows you to achieve the same tone even when the volume is turned down as at full volume.
We use highly reliable Goto tuners.
The finish is lacquer and the color is black.
Features
The words "A.C.ZEMAITIS SINCE 1955" are engraved between the two pickups. The pickup ring is not angled to match the angle of the latest strings, but is instead a traditional flat type to give it a classic impression.
The top metal plate features Zemaitis' traditional leaf pattern and Aces&Eight engraving design. ``Aces&Eights'' is a poker hand called ``Dead Man's Hand,'' which combines two pairs of aces and eights. Wild Bill Hickok, a U.S. marshal, was shot in the back while playing poker and was named after the combination of cards he was holding when he died.
The body back is equipped with a luxurious back plate made of aluminum alloy with engravings.
Made in Japan - A high-grade model manufactured in the same factory as the Zemaitis highest-grade model.
