The elegantly crafted Maple back and sides with Flamed Maple top, gives the Black Knight SA-700FM the sound of a top of the range guitar. The set in neck provides superb sustain and a cutting tone, which fits flawlessly with the guitar's strong resonance. The high output humbucking pickups ensure you'll always get the sustain you need.
Add this to the extremely stylish flamed maple top and not only will this guitar make you sound the part, but you'll look it too. With the excellent build and finish quality you should expect from Black Knight guitars, you can be confident that this instrument will provide years of awe-inspiring playing.
The Black Knight SA-700FM has been reviewed in the September 2011 issue of Guitar & Bass Magazine - get your copy now!
Reviewer Martyn Casserly was first struck by the light weight of the guitar, describing it as "a welcome relief from some of the weighty beasts we've dragged around stages over the years."
The feel of the guitar impressed too, as "the mahogany set-neck avoids the chunky feel of a classic Gibson, making it more friendly."
Martyn also found the sound to make some impressive allusions to classic instruments.
"With a clean amp the SA-700FM has enough depth and smoothness to make a decent stab at jazz and blues, while the bridge offers jangly pop for Beatles-style noodling."
"Changing to a dirty setting unveils that classic grunt which almost forces Black Crowes riffs from your fingers."
