EVO MASTER -MIDI-PIEZO DIAGRAM

The Evo-Master combines the features of both our Classic and Master Alloy guitars. Hand fabricated from 6061 aircraft grade aluminum and finished to perfection in the finest detail, the Evo-Master-Vintage Copper guitar is a durable and light weight copper plated semi hollow aluminum and mahogany hybrid instrument. Both Pickup positions are backed with specially ported Honduran mahogany chambers for a tasty hybrid effect of warm tonewood, with aluminum overtones and sustain. The Seymour Duncan STL-2-T selectable Rhythm-Lead single coil pickup and custom copper plated PAF type humbucker, are both coil tapped in unison for either a sweet and balanced rhythm tone, or a fat and full resonant boost in the low frequencies and mid range, all with one push/push tone pot or separate micro switch if desired.

As a special option, the Evo-Master is also available with Piezo pickup crystals specially built into the compensated barrel saddles for an incredibly authentic, studio quality acoustic guitar tone at the flick of a switch, as well as the option of a 13 pin MIDI compatible output. The 1/4” jack stereo output allows for simultaneous use of both guitar pickup and acoustic guitar sound as two separate signals with a stereo cable, or both signals can be combined as one balanced mono output when an ordinary cable is used. The separate 13 Pin MIDI output option can be used with any of today’s state-of-the-art MIDI converters and will provide the fastest and most accurate tracking available on the market.

As an aluminum instrument the Evo-Master is noticeably capable of a greater spectrum of harmonic frequencies (low and high) than its traditional wood predecessors. Due to the greater response of the 6061 aluminum alloy body, lower pitch notes project a fatter frequency along with incredibly pure sounding crystal clear resonance overtones. Mid to upper octave notes carry through with an excellent harmonic clarity and fullness that would be impossible to achieve with any other material.

The custom African Padauk neck compliments the body with incredible depth, warmth of tone, and sustain. The stability of Padauk also works well with our aluminum bodies by having less of a reaction to climate change than Maple or Mahogany. AlumiSonic also includes the convenience of a neck heel side truss rod adjustment for better access.

Like all of our copper plated guitars the Evo-Master receives special attention to the finest finishing and mechanical details. AlumiSonic neck pockets and hardware positions are accurately laser cut and pre-aligned to within .005” with a slightly undersized neck pocket. Each neck pocket is then flawlessly hand filed and adjusted to conform to the heel of it’s custom neck for a perfect fit. Every screw and competent of the Evo-Master is individually hand polished, copper plated and lightly tarnished to match the tarnished copper body.

Ordered to your custom requirements, each Evo-Master is entirely fabricated as a custom guitar. The custom made African Padauk neck is available with a variety of back contours, fingerboard, and fret wire selections. AlumiSonic will provide neck radius contour drawings as well as actual photographs of your select fingerboard wood before fabricating the guitar. As with all of our guitars, we guide each customer through an itemized quotation of every option on the instrument. The Evo-Master is the perfect combination of the best that aluminum guitars have to offer, while designed to go beyond AlumiSonic to your custom preferences.
