In response to the popularity of our 290 DC S model (double cutaway, single P90 pickup), we are now offering the single Dog Ear P90 pickup configuration to our original single cutaway 290 design. From pristine clean tones rich with harmonic complexity to hard-hitting vintage rock tones, the 290 S is capable of producing a vast array of tones. Dial back the volume and tone controls and you will be surprised by the smooth, mellow tones that are available without ever getting muddy. We are truly amazed by what this single pickup guitar has to offer.
