Technology Overview:
The Glasstones System uses Glasstones patented technology. It is comprised of a glass nut, glass bridge saddles, glass fretboard and glass frets all made from dense, highly-tempered material. This technology puts strings in contact with glass to eliminate interference and purify the strings’ vibration.
Technology Benefits:
The benefits of the Glasstones System make for an exceptional-sounding instrument that performs up to and even exceeds the highest standards of many expensive offerings currently in the market. These benefits include:
• Pure rich tones and unique timbre (voice)
• Greatly-increased natural sustain
• Optimized harmonics
• Increased responsiveness
• Extensive flexibility in musical style.
Products Overview:
Two guitar models have been developed using the Glasstones System. Each one has unique body style that’s been designed to appeal to a broad range of musical styles. Both come in a variety of finishes and colors. Customization and additional models will be introduced into the Glasstones lineup in the near future.
