Acoustic guitar HEADWAY The Eagle / ATB Type F [to order]

Headway The Eagle / ATB Type F - A new era takes flight

Some guitars mark a turning point. The Eagle / ATB Type F is one of them.
The fruit of over 45 years of Japanese craftsmanship, this Headway creation symbolizes the brand's renewal and pays tribute to the visionary spirit of its founder, Yasuo Momose.

Handcrafted in the Aska workshops in Japan, this guitar embodies the precision and passion of the artisans who shape it. Every curve, every touch of varnish, every assembly tells a story: that of an instrument designed to vibrate to the rhythm of its owner's emotions.

An instrument inspired by the eagle, king of the sky

Its name is no coincidence: "The Eagle" evokes freedom, power and grace, all qualities that are reflected in its refined aesthetics. The crown-shaped logo on the headstock, the eagle feather inlay on the fingerboard and the rosewood pickguard create a strong, elegant and singular identity.
It's a guitar you don't just look at: you contemplate.

Woods chosen for their soul

Beneath its majestic appearance, The Eagle / ATB Type F displays all the richness of hand-selected woods.
The Sitka spruce top brings clarity and responsiveness, offering a dynamic response to every nuance of play.
The Indian rosewood back and sides wrap the sound in warm depth, with those rich lows and silky harmonics that are the stuff of dreams for lovers of fine acoustics.
The African mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard ensure a fluid feel and exemplary stability - a pleasure under the fingers, from the first chord to the clearest highs.

The result? A balanced, expressive guitar that responds to your every breath. Whether you prefer delicate fingerpicking or ample strumming, The Eagle responds with natural elegance.

Playing comfort designed to last

Headway has redesigned the neck profile to offer exceptional comfort. The new "Extra Slim V Custom Grip" is slim, fast and precise, while retaining the solidity typical of Headway instruments thanks to its carbon reinforcement bars.
The result is a handle that's light in the hand, but strong over time - a perfect balance between modernity and tradition.

The Headway spirit

At Headway, nothing is left to chance. The Aska Team Build team works on each guitar as a unique work of art, respecting both the wood and the sound. The Eagle / ATB Type F is not just an instrument, it's an extension of the musical gesture, an invitation to explore new sounds and rediscover the pure pleasure of acoustic playing.

Delivered in a hard case with certificate of authenticity, this exceptional guitar is ready to accompany you for a lifetime.
