A favorite of studio musicians, the FireFly continuously delivers a professional performance while also being a truly convenient guitar to travel with, an extremely rare combination. With a much shorter scale length (24 inches) than your average Dreadnought, the FireFly has almost the same depth as a D Model body, although it's roughly 3 inches narrower at the lower bout. Smaller size shouldn't mean smaller tone, and this 'flat out stunning flat-top' (Guitar Player Magazine) certainly does not lack in depth of sound or resonance, due to this unique small-bodied design. To quote Shakespeare, 'though it be but little, it is fierce.' But there's only so much we can say about our own creation, so we'll let Matt Blackett, Associate Editor of Guitar Player Magazine, do it for us: "I've never reviewed a guitar that has caused so many people to instantly utter some variation on the phrase, 'This might be the best guitar I've ever played in my life.' It's tough to put into words what happens when you pick or strum the FireFly, but here goes: The sound is full, loud and lively, with an amazing clarity and definition from string to string. This sustain is downright incredible, and the treble response is beautifully musical. Everyone who hears this guitar was floored by how much depth and power emanated from such a small body... This is one of the best guitars I've ever played period."
