Frequently asked questions
Which guitar stays in tune better during aggressive bending and vibrato?
The MH-1000ET with its Evertune bridge is engineered specifically to maintain stable tuning under performance demands. The M-1000 uses a standard bridge and relies on its neck-thru design for sustain but lacks the tuning-lock mechanism.
Which has more tonal flexibility?
The M-1000 offers greater versatility with its dual-voice Fishman Fluence pickups and push-pull coil-split yielding four distinct voicings. The MH-1000ET's EMG pairing is equally capable but fixed to two pickup types without multi-voice switching.
What's the difference between neck-thru and set-thru construction?
Neck-thru (M-1000) means the neck extends through the body for maximum sustain and continuous wood contact. Set-thru (MH-1000ET) joins the neck into a routed pocket, offering easier repairs and slightly warmer tone while still providing excellent sustain and upper-fret access.
Which is better for studio recording?
Both excel in studio; the M-1000 edges ahead for multi-genre recording due to its four voicings without pickup switching, while the MH-1000ET's Evertune eliminates tuning drift across multiple takes—choose based on your workflow priority.
