Exceptional Craftsmanship and Tone
The chambered mahogany body provides a resonant acoustic balance with a strong attack, complemented by body contours designed for ergonomic comfort. The rounded heel facilitates smooth transitions across the fretboard, enabling unrestricted playability at higher frets. The mahogany neck’s ‘C’ profile and the smooth rosewood fingerboard combine warmth with speed and precision, ideal for all musical styles.
GraphTech NuBone nut enhances tuning consistency by minimising string friction, delivering stable tuning even during aggressive playing sessions. The PureVolt Twin Six humbucker features twelve adjustable pole pieces for refined tone shaping, while vacuum wax-potting keeps noise and interference at bay.
The Lockdown locking wraparound bridge integrates the tailpiece and bridge, providing maximum sustain, superior string energy transfer, and hassle-free string changes. Its adjustable saddles enable exact intonation calibration for optimised performance.
Advanced electronics grant complete tonal control, including a treble bleed circuit on the master volume for clear tones at any volume, and a push/pull tone switch to access bright, glassy single-coil sounds.
