Frequently asked questions
What's the actual difference between these two listings?
Product A is new retail stock; Product B is B-Stock, meaning it may have minor cosmetic blemishes, packaging damage, or previous display handling, but mechanically and tonally identical. The B-Stock typically carries a lower price.
Will they sound and play the same?
Yes. Both feature the same mahogany body, maple neck, roasted jatoba fingerboard, 24 extra-jumbo frets, 350mm radius, thin U-profile neck, LH-301B pickup, and Floyd Rose Special bridge. Tone and playability are functionally identical.
What warranty or return options come with B-Stock?
B-Stock items typically have limited or modified warranty compared to new retail stock. Check the specific return policy, as B-Stock is usually final sale or has restricted return windows.
Is this guitar suitable for drop tunings and metal?
Yes, both are engineered for metal, hard rock, and extreme genres, excelling in drop tunings. The thin U-neck, locking nut, and aggressive LH-301B pickup are purpose-built for this application.
