Frequently asked questions
Are these the same guitar aside from left vs. right?
Yes. Both feature the same set-neck mahogany construction, EMG JH SET active pickups, 24.75" scale, thin U-profile neck, 22 extra-jumbo frets, and aggressive tone optimized for metal and drop tunings. The only difference is left-handed versus right-handed orientation.
What does B-Stock mean for price and condition?
B-Stock means the instrument is brand new with only minor cosmetic imperfections from the factory. Performance, electronics, and hardware are identical to new units. You save money compared to new retail pricing.
Which is better for metal and downtuned riffing?
Both are equally capable. The Snakebyte platform was designed by James Hetfield specifically for metal. The tight low-end response, high-output EMG pickups, and 24.75" scale excel at sustain and clarity in drop tunings.
Can a right-handed player use the left-handed version?
No. Left-handed guitars are strung and oriented for left-handed playing. A right-handed player must use a right-handed instrument like Product A.
