Frequently asked questions
Which guitar is better for drop-tuning and extreme bending?
The MH-1000ET with its Evertune bridge will maintain tuning through aggressive bending and alternate tunings without manual adjustment. The MH-1000NT relies on standard tuning stability, so it's less ideal for heavy drop-tuning scenarios.
How do the pickups differ in versatility?
The MH-1000NT's Fishman Fluence pickups include pull-tone switching on both pickups, allowing you to select between two voiced sounds per pickup position. The MH-1000ET's EMG pairing is fixed, offering no internal switching but proven metal-focused tonal character.
Which fingerboard radius suits lead players better?
The MH-1000NT's compound radius (300-400mm) progressively flattens toward higher frets, making bending smoother and faster single-note work easier. The MH-1000ET's consistent 350mm radius is slightly rounder and favors consistency over extreme bending fluidity.
Are both guitars equally suitable for metal?
Yes, both excel at metal—the MH-1000ET emphasizes punchy, tight overdriven tones, while the MH-1000NT delivers saturated distortion with harmonic depth. Choice depends on whether you prioritize tuning stability or tonal switching capability.
