Full Description
View Full DescriptionThe magical multi-scale
The peak of playability. With multi-scale technology underneath your fingertips, you'll open up a world of possibilities. Each fret is designed to facilitate maximum manoeuvrability and the utmost comfort when you're fretting. The 'fanned' fret design lets your fingers slot into each position far more naturally compared to a traditional fretboard, so you can discover your true playing potential. The lowest strings benefit massively from the longer scale – they'll feel much tighter and more precise. Get ready for action.
EMG energy
Pumping out power. The EMG 707 pickups in this guitar give it a roaring tone. They'll bring your licks to life with their supreme articulation and powerful, active, high output performance. You'll have no trouble reaching insane levels of volume with these exceptional, dynamic beasts. The bridge pickup will unleash waves of aggression and bite, but also sing on cleaner settings.
The neck pickup will deliver a slightly warmer, saturated sound which is as crystal clear as it is tight. Cleans will be bright and defined, whilst high gain settings will soar through the mix with ease. Your riffs will leap out, taking on an entirely new character with these incredibly powerful, pristine pickups. Both rhythm and lead licks will have everything they need to truly shine – you're in for a treat.
Perfect playing
A fortress of playability. Adorned with a maple and purple heart neck, this guitar offers the slickest fretting possible. Your hand will slide to each position with unparalleled ease, helped along further by multi-scale technology. The macassar ebony fretboard complements this perfectly, giving your fingers all the smoothness they desire. Both the ebony and maple have a bright resonance, which helps each note leap out with even more attack – especially good for high gain settings.
That's not all. There's also Cort staggered locking machineheads, which offer a deluxe tuning experience. They'll keep your strings locked in place, whilst allowing you to change strings quickly and effortlessly. The swamp ash body is lightweight, which is useful for live shows. Combined with the beautiful poplar burl top, it bumps the bright tone of this guitar up even further. With this sonic weapon in your hands, nothing will stand in your way to total musical domination.
