Unearth your sound. You'll no doubt have heard of Fishman pickups. They have been rapidly gaining fame for their new, cutting edge pickup technology which provides a cornucopia of tonal possibilities. Both pickups have an active and passive voicing, meaning you can get the precise sound you’re looking for.
The Fishman Fluence Modern humbucker in the bridge uses a ceramic magnet to deliver unbridled tightness and a crisp, attack-heavy sound. The passive setting sounds full bodied and raw, offering pure tonal aggression. The active setting offers a high output, mids-heavy sound which smashes through the mix with unbelievable bite. When using the alnico neck Fluence pickup, you'll have a warmer, saturated lead tone which makes lead licks scream with power. With these pickups, your tone will be volcanic, with enough fiery dynamism to handle anything.
Fabled maple
Bold and bright. Maple is a coveted wood for guitar necks, offering supreme sturdiness, smoothness, and comfort. This neck has a naturally bright resonance, so it will complement high gain settings exceptionally well. Made to a comfortabke Thin 'U' shape, your fingers will feel a newfound freedom as they sail along this premium neck, and you'll be able to express yourself musically without boundaries.
Ebony dreams
Dark and beautiful. This macassar ebony fretboard offers an exceptional playing experience. It, too, has a bright resonance and an excellent level of comfort, facilitating smooth and efficient fret changes. As such, you'll find that it complements the maple neck perfectly, offering slick manoeuvrability and a world of musical possibilities.
Crafted to perfection
It's more than equipped. Every inch and component of this signature has been carefully designed to bring about a quality playing experience. Each of its seven strings will stay in tune indefinitely thanks to the Tonepros locking TOM bridge, which offers incredible string stability. In addition, the LTD locking tuners also have a vice grip on your strings, holding them tight and preventing any tuning issues. A moulded nut also helps to keep your strings securely in place. The striking finish helps give this model a beautiful, mystical aura. Enrich your music.
