NASHVILLE, Tenn.— Ciari Guitars introduces the Ascender™ P90 Solo™, the latest addition to the manufacturer’s line of professional-grade, full-sized folding guitars. Combining award-winning design with expert Nashville-craftsmanship, the Ascender P90 Solo breaks new ground by offering an OEM-exclusive Seymour Duncan^® P90 bridge pickup. With its patented compact, foldable design and unique sonic character, the Ascender P90 Solo is the ideal travel companion for the modern musician who demands precision, portability, and most of all, performance.

The Ascender P90 Solo embraces an asymmetric, surf-forward, satin basswood body style, available in five eye-catching colors: Black, White, Sea Foam Green, Red, and Blue. The full-sized design offers a 24 3/4-inch scale length and 1.7-inch nut width. The resonant mahogany neck has an ebony fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets. In coordination with Glaser Instruments in Nashville, Ciari Guitars uses Plek machining technology to plane the fingerboards and dress the frets, ensuring ideal action and playability. The Ascender P90 Solo features a distinctive and stylish pickguard, which was created by Nick Drushel, Manager at Glaser Instruments, who also specializes in guitar and product design.

Each Ascender P90 Solo has a Tune-o-Matic Roller Bridge designed to ensure a smooth string path and tuning stability. The 3+3 headstock offers custom Ciari locking tuners, which play an important role in the manufacturer’s patented folding system. When it’s time to hit the road, players engage the system, which combines an aircraft-grade mid-neck hinge, a translating locking strut to selectively immobilize the hinge, and a floating tailpiece to selectively tighten and loosen the strings. This system enables the Ascender P90 Solo to fold in half symmetrically for a folded length of 18.5 inches. While folded, the elegant string management keeps the strings in place and under light tension, while the custom locking tuners ensure everything stays crisp and in tune when unfolded for play.
