Description
Experience the perfect blend of vintage charm and modern performance with the PJ-3 electric guitar. Featuring two custom-wound Alnico V P90 pickups, this classic offset body delivers a dynamic midrange presence and crisp bite that define its versatile sound. The warm, full tones from the neck pickup complement the clear, punchy bridge, effortlessly covering everything from jangly clean tones to effects-heavy rock, without sacrificing clarity.
Crafted from a lightweight Paulownia body with a nitrocellulose lacquer finish, the guitar breathes and ages beautifully, developing unique character over time. The satin roasted maple neck, shaped in a comfortable modern C, sports a smooth rosewood fretboard with luminous side dots for easy navigation on dark stages. Stainless steel jumbo frets ensure durability alongside a smooth playing feel.
Precision hardware includes a vintage-style offset tremolo that remains responsive and reliably returns to pitch, locked-in tuning thanks to chrome locking machine heads, and the stability you need for expressive bends and tremolo use.
