Forte Port X - Partial Eclipse

From Michael Kelly:

"The Forte Port X presents the original Forte Port body with its signature Port Technology in a full flame maple construction for bright tone and a distinct visual appearance.  A built-in Fishman preamp allows you to plug in wherever you need to without losing any of the tonewood’s sound, and a comfortable neck profile makes the Forte Port X an excellent guitar to play for gigs or studio sessions.

Michael Kelly guitars are built to deliver the best possible sound using unique bracing and construction for new sound port placements on the instrument. An offset front port creates an unbroken and potent “soundboard” across the top between the neck and the bridge for better resonance and a louder sound. A side port also acts as a personal monitor, projecting sound up so you can hear your playing more clearly.

The Forte Port X line features a comfortable c-shaped neck profile and a dual-action truss rod for dialing in the best action and feel. An aggressive cutaway also allows easy access to the upper frets, making tapping and soloing easier for those high notes."
