A True Work of Art
The Doves in Flight incorporates the features of the legendary Dove with some of the finest decorative work in the industry. The Doves in Flight displays 28 individually engraved dove inlays—seven on the headstock, 16 on the fingerboard, three on the pick guard, and two on the bridge—each with its own original design. Each tuner knob is hand engraved for full detail. Now hand built using premium ebony on the fingerboard and bridge.
