The Switchblade cuts fast and shines bright. The American Maple shell delivers crisp articulation while single-flanged hoops keep the tone open and lively. Finished with striking Exotic Burl veneer, it slices through the mix with a sharp edge and brilliant clarity.

For the serious player, the increased head-to-edge contact increases shell vibration, allowing the sonic nuances of the Hybrid shell to stand out.
