Double cutaway, mahogany and maple throughout, two great pickups, STUNNING looks, tones and playability. It's hard to believe that at the time of writing this guitar is being sold for AUD$429.00. I think that's a proper bargain. The Solaris II enjoys some upgrades and improvements from its predecessor, suggested mainly by customer feedback. That's a good thing and it means that Artist are listening to you. Everyone benefits that way. This is a very snazzy instrument that can side on up to guitars three or four times its price. By the way, "Solaris" means 'of the sun'. Happy days.
