Key Features
Product Ref: 119442
The Shire Sem-Hollow Guitar combines a classic design with modern features, giving you the perfect blend of old and new. Its body is crafted from maple, delivering an extremely bright and precise tone with crisp, detailed highs. Maple is a great tonewood for hollow designs, complementing its warm, resonant nature to creating an incredibly powerful tonal characteristic.
The body is also topped with flamed maple in an arch design. Not only does this create a beautifully stylish and unique look, it also offers extra comfort when playing. The Body's cutaway and the smooth nature of the neck also contributes to the Shire's comfortable performance, letting you move across the entire fingerboard with ease.
The Dean Shire also comes equipped with a set of DMT Design humbuckers and a piezo pickup, providing you with a beautiful array of electric and acoustic tones. The two humbuckers are designed with plenty of power and punch, delivering strong lows and striking highs that are suitable for a wide range of musical genres. Combine the warm sound of the bridge with the dynamics of the neck or use separately to create a whole host of captivating tones.
You also have access to the piezo pickup via the mini-toggle switch. This pickup will capture the sound created within the hollow body, producing a stunning acoustic sound that you can combine with the tones created by the DMT humbuckers. Its also features dual outputs, letting you send your tone to two different amps to create a unique, stereo performance.
