This model offers a blend of vintage style with cutting-edge hardware and electronics, making it ideal for players across rock, metal, and beyond. Here's a detailed overview of its specifications and features:

Construction and Design

  • Construction: Bolt-on neck construction provides a bright, cutting tone with plenty of snap in the attack—ideal for fast playing styles and definitive articulation.
  • Scale: The 25.5" scale length is perfect for maintaining string tension and achieving optimal playability across a variety of tunings.
  • Body Material: Made of alder, the body offers a lightweight feel and a balanced tonal spectrum, delivering ample sustain and a slightly pronounced upper midrange.
  • Neck: A 3-piece maple neck enhances the guitar’s brightness and sustain, offering stability and durability under various climate conditions.
  • Fingerboard: The Macassar ebony fingerboard features a 350mm radius, which is flat enough to facilitate fast playing styles and comfortable string bending.

Playability

  • Nut: A locking nut with a width of 43mm helps keep the strings securely in place, crucial for maintaining stable tuning when using the tremolo system.
  • Neck Contour: The Extra Thin U-shaped neck profile is designed for high-speed playing and comfort, allowing for effortless transitions and rapid finger movements.
  • Frets: 22 XJ frets provide a smooth playing surface that's perfect for fast playing and precision fretting.

Hardware and Electronics

  • Tuners: LTD tuners offer reliable tuning stability, essential for keeping performance consistent, especially in live settings.
  • Bridge: A Floyd Rose 1000 series tremolo bridge allows for dynamic whammy bar techniques while keeping the guitar perfectly in tune, no matter how aggressively it’s played.
  • Pickups: A Seymour Duncan Hot Rail in the neck position delivers a thick, warm tone, ideal for rhythm and lead, while the Seymour Duncan Distortion in the bridge provides high output with clear articulation and aggressive bite. Both pickups come with a pull tone feature for coil splitting, offering versatile single-coil sounds in addition to full humbucker tones.
  • Electronics Layout: The control scheme includes a master volume and a master tone (with push/pull coil split) along with a 3-way switch, allowing for comprehensive tonal adjustments on the fly.

Aesthetic and Extras

  • Finish: The Snow White finish provides a clean, sleek look, beautifully complemented by gold hardware for a striking visual contrast that’s both classic and contemporary.
  • Strings: The guitar comes equipped with D'Addario XL120 strings, known for their excellent tonal balance and durability, suitable for performing a wide range of musical styles.
