|  We started with two guitar bodystyles; the Sidewinder and the Crossover, and one bass bodystyle; the Sidewinder. We then categorized those bodystyles into three models; the Club model, the Tour model and the Session model. The Club model features a highly resonant solid Swamp Ash body. The Tour model simply adds a gorgeous figured Maple pickguard on the Swamp Ash body. The Session model features a spectacular hand-carved figured Maple top over a Swamp Ash back. All New Century Series instruments include Conklin's famous multi-laminate bolt-on necks and exclusive "neck-thru feel" heel. Finally, we compiled some of the most popular items from our Custom Shop and created four option packages which can be added to the basic models. Items such as EQ systems, piezo bridges and MIDI electronics allow you to configure your New Century Series instrument just the way you want it. These instruments are not mass-produced downgrades of our renowned signature and one-of-a-kind models, but are standardized versions of our most requested designs and options. Every instrument produced at Conklin features the same craftsmanship and lifetime warranty, regardless of price. New Century Series guitars and basses are handmade to the same exacting specifications by the same craftsmen using top grade hardwoods and name brand hardware, right in the same shop as our finest Custom instruments. By limiting options instead of lowering quality, we are able to streamline production and lower costs. New Century Series instruments start at $2800 and include a heavy duty Conklin gig bag.
