This isn't some scaled-down toy with a compromised feel; it’s a full-size, 24.75\" scale powerhouse featuring a patented, concealed folding neck that lets the guitar tuck into a backpack or an FAA-compliant carry-on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt with a resonant basswood body and a rock-solid mahogany neck, the Ascender feels substantial and perfectly balanced on a strap, offering the kind of sustain and punch you’d expect from a premium, non-folding solid-body instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe engineering here is nothing short of brilliant. Using a heavy-duty actuator lever on the back of the body, the neck hinge locks into place with aircraft-grade precision, while a synchronized string-tension management system keeps your strings organized and under light tension even when folded. Flip it open, lock the lever, and the guitar returns to pitch almost instantly. The ebony fingerboard features a compound radius and a custom \"V-groove\" at the hinge that is virtually undetectable under your thumb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTone-wise, Ciari didn't cut any corners, loading this beast with the legendary Seymour Duncan '59 (neck) and JB (bridge) humbucker combo. This is the \"hot-rodded\" standard for a reason, delivering everything from warm, woody cleans to that iconic, aggressive bridge-position growl. The hardware is equally \"pro-spec,\" featuring Grover locking tuners and a custom roller bridge to ensure friction-free stability during the folding process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDressed in a sleek, high-gloss Jet Black with a matching headstock, the Ascender is the ultimate travel electric guitar for the player who refuses to sacrifice their \"real\" rig for a flight. This guitar is in good condition but in full disclosure, check out the photos of the bottom edge, which shows that the guitar took a hit while in transit.  Thankfully it's not bad and it's structurally sound - this guitar is a tough beast and can whitstand a beating.  We've inspected and vetted it to make sure everything is fine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Ciari Guitars Ascender comes with the original backpack\/gig bag.  It's been setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop and is ready to to hit the road.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ciari Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48789697069299,"sku":"80CIA000","price":1299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2433\/files\/1-Img40124_bafca9ff-3df0-47ab-8c2a-813b3c794d89.jpg?v=1778711308","url":"https:\/\/www.truetonemusic.com\/products\/pre-owned-ciari-guitars-ascender-travel-guitar-jet-black-with-gig-bag","provider":"Truetone Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
