However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Go wild. The Vibe Roller bridge system is a bespoke design which utilises a bearing under each string. This allows the string to move frictionlessly over the bridge when using the tremolo, ensuring much better tuning stability that traditional vibrato systems.
Traditional and authentic. It's time to enhance your tone and experience an instrument that offers pro-quality features that belie the price tag. This Hartwood's meticulous design means the Fifty6 Vibrato comes equipped with two humbucking pickups which can - at the pull of the tone knob - engage true single coil sound.

It combines modern performance-ready features with a meticulous design, and vintage style too. Featuring a thermally treated maple fingerboard which improved durability and resistance to temperature and humidity change, as well as being more environmentally conscious. While a bone nut adds extra vintage tonal authenticity, it also self lubricates. This in conjunction with the locking tuners ensures the Fifty6's already stable Vibe-Roller vibrato isn't hampered at the other end of the string.
With a stunning flamed maple top, and our unique 'Pickle' finish, pearloid inlays, vintage white binding, and a classic double-cutaway body - your look is as timeless as your sound.
