ASTRAL
THE TED MASTER
Embark on a funk-rock journey with Astral. This guitar, which displays the unique features that make Ted guitars unique, will produce incomparable sounds in your hands.
Astral Deluxe en finition Pommelée
NECK
Two species selected from the great variety offered by French forests.
The neck is a multi-ply of maple and walnut, with a section inspired by the famous Modern C. It is therefore robust and provides excellent playing comfort.
The fingerboard, made of Dordogne walnut, has a 12'' radius which accommodates 22 medium frets.
CREL PICKUPS
Astral is available in a 2 humbucker version (Astral Deluxe) or 3 single humbuckers depending on your musical universe.
The 2 Humbuckers of your Astral Deluxe can be those of Bauxite, Saphyr or Concorde.
The three single coil pickups take you into blues-rock and funk territory.
A winding around Alnico 5 magnets, optimized to 6 KOhms, gives you a wider sound spectrum.
Astral's sound surprises with its clarity, which allows for precise arpeggios.
The sound of your Astral's three exclusive microphones can be adjusted using a 5-position selector, a volume knob and one or two tones according to your desires.
ALUMINUM BODY
Lightweight for better playing comfort, it contributes to the sound as much as the look.
The three sound holes of the Ted cases manage to make the guitars sound unplugged without disturbing your neighbors.
As with all guitar cases, aluminum will remember your indiscretions and your belt buckles.
But with the clarity of metal and its reflective power, your Ted guitar will reflect the light, and you'll have a hard time hiding behind its shine.
Depending on your style, you can choose Saphyr in Brute , Siderale, Galaxie or Black finishes.
