Peerless Cremona

Peerless is Korea's premiere guitar manufacturer and has been producing high quality jazz guitars since the 70s. Over the years they've built thousands of guitars for Gretsch, Gibson, Fender, Epiphone, and many others. Now a prestigious brand in their own right, Peerless offers instruments that rival the sound and playability of much costlier boutique makers at a fraction of the price.

The Cremona is an all maple guitar with with a maple top, laminate maple back and sides, and a maple neck. It features an ebony fingerboard, an ebony cello style tailpiece, and a gorgeous wine red finish. Hardware includes a set of Grover tuners with ebony buttons and a Kent Armstrong built-in humbucker. The overall style of the instrument is reminiscent of the understated, "clean" look pioneered by the great Jimmy D'Aquisto and later developed by Bob Benedetto. In an effort to keep embellishments to a minimum, the fingerboard is free of positioning dots (there are still side dots.)
