Ton Archtop any info?

I picked this up off reverb a while ago.

The seller didn’t know much about it. He did say it was made in Slovenia, so I was able to find the mfr website.

Specs seem pretty good. Solid carved top but they don’t say what wood. Laminated maple b/s. That’s assuming it’s the same specs as their electric ones. It sure looks the same.

One thing that is a little bit different about it is the fingerboard extension. It’s not floating like 99% of the archtops in the world. So far as I can find the only other manufacturer to make them this way was Martin. It sounds to me kind of like a cross between a flattop and an archtop. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Not much help here. That's about the sharpest Florentine cutaway I've ever seen.
