American Basswood Body

Crafted from American basswood, this lightweight body produces a naturally balanced and smooth tone. This wood choice offers a clear, even sound with a flat frequency response, perfect for versatile playing styles, allowing the natural wood's warmth to shine through.

Solid Roasted Maple Neck

The Oval C neck is constructed from roasted maple, enhancing the wood's stability, durability, and resistance to moisture and temperature fluctuations. This treatment ensures the neck remains reliable and comfortable, even under varying environmental conditions, providing consistent playability.

Complementing the neck is a rosewood fingerboard, which delivers a well-rounded tone with a rich, focused midrange. The jumbo stainless steel frets offer outstanding corrosion resistance and feature a wide, tall profile, allowing for fast, precise articulation. This setup guarantees smooth chord transitions and clear, vibrant notes when fingering, which is ideal for players seeking comfort and tonal clarity.

Seymour Duncan Pickups

The Seymour Duncan® Hyperion™ H-H pickups deliver a moderate output using Alnico-5 magnets, preserving the clarity of your core tone even when distortion is applied. These pickups provide a sharp, defined pick attack and maintain a well-balanced frequency response from treble to bass, making them highly compatible with a wide range of effect pedals.

Equipped with the innovative Dyna-MIX10 switching system and an Alter Switch, this guitar offers ten distinct tonal options. The convenient mini switch effortlessly toggles between humbucker and single-coil sounds. Additionally, the Power Tap mode replicates an authentic single-coil tone despite the guitar's dual humbucker configuration, adding versatility to your sound palette.

Premium Guitar Touches

Gotoh® MG-T locking tuners provide exceptional tuning stability, ensuring your guitar stays perfectly in tune during intense performances. These tuners also speed up string changes, making maintenance quick and hassle-free for any player.

The guitar features luminescent side dots on the fingerboard, allowing musicians to easily identify position markers even in low-light conditions or on dimly lit stages. Additionally, it comes with a custom gig bag tailored to offer maximum protection and a snug fit for safe transport and storage.
