Please read on below for the full details.
Inspired Design
The A-Type's design is influenced by the sleek lines of classic cars, hot rods, and surfboards, reflecting the dynamic culture of San Diego's North County. This area, rich in surfing, skateboarding, auto craft, music, art, and architecture, has deeply influenced Powers' approach. The guitar's asymmetrical shape balances visual appeal with ergonomic efficiency, resulting in a fully enclosed, slim hollowbody design that is as beautiful as it is functional.
Exceptional Playability
The Powers Electric A-Type prioritises player comfort and playability. Its lightweight, hollow body ensures effortless handling whether standing or sitting, while the contoured armrest and radiused body edges enhance the overall playing experience. The neck is a perfect blend of size, offering a smooth transition into the unique split radius fretboard. This asymmetrical fretboard, which is flatter on the treble side, allows for seamless string bending and maximum playability, encouraging players to explore new ideas and express their unique sound.
Unmatched Sound Quality
This model of the A-Type is equipped with PF42 (partial Faraday) pickups, designed to deliver a firm, bright sound. These pickups combine modern magnetic structures with vintage inspiration, allowing for natural string vibration and producing both fidelity and colourful warmth. The trussed hollowbody, featuring internal soundposts and a braced solid-wood top, maximises resonance and lyrical sustain while effectively suppressing feedback.
Precision Hardware
The A-Type features a top-loading hardtail bridge, providing stability and ease of use. This bridge design enhances the guitars tonal quality and ensures consistent performance. Finished in a solid, classic auto-inspired colour, the A-Type boasts a timeless aesthetic. The firestripe pickguard adds a touch of elegance, complementing the solid colour finish perfectly. High-density Delrin saddle material further enhances the guitar's durability and tonal richness.
