Features
Resonant ash body with open pore finish
The lightweight ash body is finished in an open pore Burgundy Red that lets the wood breathe and resonate more freely. This gives a lively, immediate response with a clear low end and articulate mids, while keeping the instrument comfortable for long rehearsals and sets. It also wears well over time, so it looks smart on stage and in the studio.
5 piece neck and panga panga fingerboard
A stable 5 piece maple and panga panga neck pairs with a smooth panga panga fingerboard for a fast, confident feel. The combination offers excellent note definition and sustain, while the satin like finish helps your fretting hand move effortlessly across the full range. Upper fret access is generous for fills, chords and solos.
Bartolini MK 1 pickups and active EQ
A matched set of Bartolini MK 1 soapbar pickups delivers a balanced, modern tone with plenty of punch and clarity. The active 3 band EQ lets you shape lows, mids and highs to suit different rooms and styles, with the versatility to sit neatly in a mix or push forward when needed. A passive bypass keeps you playing even if a battery runs low.
MetalCraft M bridge for sustain and stability
The high mass MetalCraft M bridge enhances sustain and tuning stability while improving string to string balance. It also allows for through body or top loading stringing so you can fine tune feel and response to your preference. Solid hardware throughout keeps the setup dependable for daily practice and regular gigging.
