RainSong Graphite Guitars is introducing The All-Graphite Advanced Series for NAMM -- a new line of composite guitars designed from the ground. Made entirely in the USA, this series features all-graphite construction, adjustable graphite necks and rich colors -- all at an attractive new price point.

The Advanced Series features all-graphite soundboards crafted using RainSong's patented Projection Tuned Layering process. Constructed entirely without restrictive braces, the all-graphite soundboards vibrate freely to provide greater acoustic volume and a clean, detailed tone. The Advanced Series sports a bold new look with rich colors, complemented by accents of the shimmering graphite-weave look.

The neck of the Advanced Series represents a pioneering achievement in its own right. It is the first all-composite neck/fingerboard combination to include an integral double-action trussrod. The composite fingerboard is precision CNC-machined. The strength of the carbon fiber, the adjustable truss rod, the precision-shaped fingerboard and the new low-profile shape combine to provide a super-fast neck with a consistently low action and no dead spots, according to the company. The Advanced Series was created as a workhorse for the working, traveling musician. The all-graphite construction is virtually impervious to humidity and temperature variations. The Advanced Series was designed with enhanced toughness to be able to better handle the physical stresses of travel.

The Advanced Series is debuting with a deep body cutaway model that comes in a choice of red, blue or black. The suggested retail price is $1,249 for the acoustic (A-WS1100) and $1,499 for the acoustic-electric (A-WS1000).
