Selected at the Divider Business Show 2025. Limited to 10 models made using Yamazakura cherry blossoms from Miyazaki Prefecture. Headway produces a wide range of models, from tradi tional to exotic and modern, and is known for its high level of craftsmanship. At Headway, there's the Aska Team Build, a small but highly skilled team of several members who have built a career under master builder Momose for 10 years. Aska Team Build incorporates rare woods not typically used in regular models, as well as processing and design techniques that require advanced skills, resulting in guitars crafted with meticulous attention to both sound and appearance. This model features a Sitka spruce top, wild cherry back and sides, and horse chestnut in the center of the back. The wild cherry wood used here has a powerful resonance and a sweet tone with a peak in the mid-low range, and when combined with the bright horse chestnut wood in the center, it produces a bright yet well-balanced sound. The body shape, known as a dreadnought, produces a powerful and dynamic sound, rich in overtones and a powerful tone. The neck is made of African mahogany with an ebony fingerboard, and the thin neck grip is finished for excellent playability. It also incorporates two carbon support bars for added rigidity. This not only maintains the neck's rigidity, but also contributes to the quick response that transmits vibrations the instant you play. The decorative theme is "stargazing cherry blossoms," and the back of the body features a woman holding a Japanese umbrella and a starry sky, while the fingerboard is dotted with cherry blossoms and stars. The pickguard is designed to resemble cherry blossom petals floating in the night sky. The body color is finished in a deep blue gradient that blends into the night sky, creating a fantastical atmosphere. The included sound hole cover is also an original design, further enhancing this special guitar. The unique design is the culmination of Headway's many years of know-how and technology. This is truly a model worthy of being a show model!Body Top: Sitka Spruce Body Side&Back：Yamazakura With 3P Center: Tochi Neck: African Mahogany Fingerboard: Ebony Nut: High Density Bone (buffalo bone) Saddle: High Density Bone (water buffalo bone) Bridge: Ebony Machineheads: GOTOH SG301 AB01 GG Frets: HHF-AG2S Scale: 645mm (25.4 inches) Neck Grip: Extra Slim U Width at Nut: 43mm Bracing: 34 Semi Forward Shifted, Scalloped X Bracing Finish: Thin Urethane Hard case included Show more
