Manufacturer's 2001 Description:
When you pick up the new hollow-bodied ES-446S, the first thing youll notice is how incredibly light the instrument is. With an average weight of just under 71/2 pounds, the ES-446S can get you through long sets with little or no fatigue. The other thing youll notice is how great it sounds. The contoured spruce top features f-holes and braces that are carved into the top not glued. This makes for an instrument with marvelous tone and remarkable resonance. Finally, the ES-446S is topped off with a graceful Florentine cutaway and traditional-style head stock giving it a strikingly classic look.
