The open pore finish preserves the natural acoustic properties of the sungkai body, a tonewood that offers an even tone across all frequencies and loads of sustain. The maple neck and fingerboard provide a tight low end with a solid bite. The 34″ scale length combined with the comfort “C” neck profile and satin finish gives the Element 4OP a smooth and quick playing feel. Created with the most demanding players in mind, the electronics were designed to offer complete sonic flexibility. The Element 4OP is equipped with two Rockfield single coil pickups and paired with a 2-band active preamp for quickly dialing in a wide range of sounds. A push/pull pot bypasses the preamp for a passive vintage tone. From tight low-end punch to sparkling highs, the Element 4OP will quickly become your go to instrument on stage or in the studio.

1962 Whether you're playing chugging rhythms or blistering leads, the 1962 does it all. Custom Rockfield SWM humbuckers provide bold punch, while the iconic double- cutaway body shape allows for comfortable upper-fret playability for blues and metal runs. A coil-split gets you from vintage glassy tones to a raucous beast at the flip of a switch. A two-point floating tremolo provides tuning stability while still allowing for dramatic dives. Complete with a contoured basswood body, 22 medium jumbo frets, and a slim roasted flame maple neck, the 1962 looks as it good as it feels. Available in a maple top with a solid finish, the 1962 boasts stunning style, scorching sound, and a superb feel for the rock player who knows no boundaries.

This collection of nine classic Rock tunes spans five decades of rock history. The arrangements in Rock Philharmonic contain complete versions and lead sheets of original hit songs by top groups and artists: Jerry Lee Lewis, Bobby Day, Sonny and Cher, The Rolling Stones, The Eagles, Journey, and Green Day. Each piece includes a flexible arrangement that allows the melody, harmony, and bass parts to be played by all sections in the string orchestra, like or mixed instrument groups, quartets, or trios---allowing players to learn the component parts of rock and roll, play the classic arrangement, create their own arrangements, or perform the tunes solo. In addition to string orchestra, the arrangements are also set for electric strings with optional guitar/electric guitar, piano, and drumset. The student book contains a full-length, two-page play thru version of the melody, which follows closely the original recording and includes clearly labeled Intro, Verse, Chorus, Bridge, and Outro sections. The bass and harmony component parts are then presented in a lead sheet format, along with a flow chart that matches the order of the Melody Line Play Thru. The teacher's book contains a full score and reproducible piano and percussion parts. Guitar chords appear in all parts. For easy practice, the accompanying CD has two tracks for each piece---a complete track and a backing track---and TNT 2 software to mix the level of each instrument, change pitch, change tempo, and create loops. The CD can also serve as an aid to learning by ear. Titles: Great Balls of Fire * Rockin' Robin * I Got You Babe * (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction * Hotel California * Any Way You Want It * Don't Stop Believin' * Boulevard of Broken Dreams * You Can't Always Get What You Want.
