These Magnum lock tuners are certainly vintage inspired but due to the fact that they are locking, they will be much more stable than usual vintage tuners.
SEYMOUR DUNCAN PEGASUS BRIDGE HUMBUCKER WITH APS-1 PRO NECK AND SSL-1 RWRP MIDDLE PICKUP.
Direct mounted Seymour Duncan chrome covered Pegasus bridge humbucker, APS-1 Alnico II Pro neck and vintage Staggered SSL-1 rwrp middle pickups offer total versatility of modern humbucker and vintage single coil sound with 5-way lever switch and a coil tap mini switch.
The Polyurethane finish is much more resistant to general wear, meaning that scratches and dings are harder to see and inflict. This helps to leave your new guitar looking shiny even after decades of use! The thin poly finish makes this guitar sound very resonant and expressive.
Black bound Imbuia veneer top on Ash body.
Imbuia veneer top on ash body providing both style and classic tone. Ash is another popular tonewood used in the construction of electric guitars, known for its bright, articulate, and resonant tone. It is a dense and heavy hardwood, with a relatively pronounced grain pattern that can give guitars a distinctive visual appeal. Ash is often used as the body wood for guitars that require a bright and articulate tone.
TWO-PIVOT FGN TREMOLO BRIDGE
All FGN guitars and basses come with a unique Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.). It was created by FGN based on an idea to offer better pitch and articulation than conventional guitars and basses. All frets are installed on fingerboard in slightly curved shape, so that every string crosses all the frets in 90 degrees, i.e. to offer a minimum contact of string on a fret, and it makes the scale length of every string even while it actually varies on conventional fretting. The C.F.S. is a solution of fretting on a traditional guitar and bass and it offers clearer articulation and tones which give dimension when you play a cord and also cut through the mix when you play single notes.
The compound radius fingerboard has smaller (rounder) radius towards nut while larger (flatter) radius towards neck end i.e. similar to a shape of a cone.This allows for much easier chord playing at lower frets while having less stress, especially when bending strings at higher registers, thus making the neck feel much more comfortable and playable.
With a 5-way HSS pickup configuration, combined with the coil tap switches this is an instrument with a vast array of different sounds.
With the bridge humbucker coils split via the coil tap switch this will give you all of those vintage 60 style "S" type tones, while still sounding rich and full. With the coil taps disengaged the bridge pickup will sound like a classic humbucker with higher output, making the overall sound louder and thicker, consequently cutting through the mix more effectively.
