Aslin Dane Bohemian – A Bold Take on Classic Form
The Aslin Dane Bohemian is an innovative, super-cool guitar that pushes the boundaries of conventional design. Featuring a solid Gabon mahogany body and a neck-through construction approach unlike any other, the Bohemian offers lightweight comfort, incredible sustain, and a distinctive voice.

Innovative Reverse Body Construction
Unlike traditional builds, the Bohemian’s top and sides are carved from a single block of mahogany, hollowed internally to create specific tone chambers and a long internal neck cavity that extends just past the bridge. The result is a neck-through design where the bridge is mounted directly onto the extended neck section, providing maximum string energy transfer and sustain—without the added weight.
• Fully loaded weight: Only 6.7–7 lbs — exceptionally light for a neck-through guitar
• Body thickness at side: 1-25/32” (45 mm)
• Upper bout: 9-1/4” | Lower bout: 14”
• 1-ply binding (top and back)
• Finish: Transparent Red/black/vintage burst/ candy apple red/
