The dream team. It's a combination that sings. A humbucker with two single coils gives you all the dynamism you need to play your music. The Seymour Duncan JB humbucker in the bridge position is fat and beefy, giving you a thicker tone with plenty of power, bite, and articulation. It can also be coil split. If you want that searing bridge position tone that only a single-coil can reach, then simply trigger the push-pull control and start riffing. The pickups at the neck and middle position are Seymour Duncan Cool Rails that deliver a warm and crisp sound, helping lead licks flow and rhythm riffs to sound full and deep. It's everything you need.
More than just wood. Mahogany is a special wood, it has tonnes of tonal character and an incredible feel. Being smooth and sleek, you'll find that it makes hand transitions effortless around the fretboard. It's not all about the feel. Mahogany also provides a beautiful, rich resonance and visual appeal in combination with the ebony fretboard. This ebony is smooth and stable, freeing up your movement, and letting you bring out your best licks. Together, the neck and fretboard make for prime playing.
Locking tremolo. It’s essential for any serious metal guitarist. How else could you incorporate such daring dive bombs into your playing? Thankfully, Kramer know what’s required for an exhilarating performance. Featuring a Floyd Rose bridge, you can experience the freedom of creativity right at your fingertips. This locking tremolo system allows you to perform the most audacious of vibrato effects, with your strings returning to their original tuning. This way, you can have the peace-of-mind that your guitar is in tune, even after your insane whammy bar antics. An unforgettable performance, where inspiration flourishes.
