The Transit
It is a completely variable phenomenon. For a planetary Transit to occur it depends on your relative position, your perspective at the right moment.
Inspired by a classic semi-hollow design, the Transit model is made to be customized. The body shape features ergonomic contouring at the heel, plus an arm bevel and back carve. The neck joint utilizes a precisely aligned machine-bolt system with threaded inserts embedded into the neck itself. A modern 2-way adjustable truss rod is reinforced with twin carbon fiber tone rods. The standard body design is "fully-semi-hollow" giving added resonance with an open voice. Of course you can choose a solid body version instead, or even chambered without the soundhole.
