When this AJ Lucas came through our door, it was the first of its make that we had seen. Comprised mainly of Yew, Bearclaw Spruce and Wenge, this Pavilion Sweep model is an immediate favorite for picked Blues and other full-throttle playing styles, owing to its incredible responsiveness and thick, meaty trebles. The lightweight build and unique tonewoods make this one a surprisingly powerful instrument, brimming with energy and play. Even if you like to stick to first position most days, the descending Florentine cutaway provides nearly limitless possibilities if you decide to try that soulful acoustic solo you've been thinking about all this time...
I've played a few Yew wood guitars in my day and I've liked every one. This Pavilion Sweep is made to be played, light and lively and ready to jump up and get down!
I have never played one of these guitars before and I have to say that I'm impressed with its responsiveness and tone. It's also extremely light which must be due to the unusual woods used in its construction
