From Asher:
The Marc Ford Signature Model guitar was designed to seamlessly incorporate the tone and vibe of Ford's Les Paul Special with the comforts and playability of his go-to Stratocaster. Ford and Asher worked on this model for his tour with The Black Crowes and created a high performance guitar with grit, tone and a unique retro style.
Included in its superior construction and details are a tight-grain rock maple volute neck for exceptional stability, ebony faceplate, top-of-the-line hardware, and easy access truss-rod.The tone of this guitar is sweet and woody, with a great balance of grit and clarity at high stage volumes.

replacing the Veritone, the 3 position chicken head offers new tonal control and flexibility. Pos. 1: midrange filter; pos. 2: standard guitar; pos. 3: volume tone bypass. This sends the pickups from the selector switch directly to the output jack resulting in a direct signal from the pickups without potentiometer loading. You will get extra clarity, presence and output.
