Frequently asked questions
What's the main tonal difference between these two?
The V-1 emphasizes bright, punchy articulation designed for modern metal, while the C-1 offers warm resonant lows with defined midrange for broader versatility. Both use identical Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers but the V-1's lighter swamp ash body contributes more brightness, while the C-1's body construction emphasizes warmth.
Are the necks different?
Both feature ultra-thin 'C' profile necks with 25.5" scale, 12"-16" compound radius, and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets. The C-1 provides specific neck measurements (.748" at 1st fret, .787" at 12th) and a wider Ernie Ball compensated nut for enhanced intonation precision.
Which bridge design is better for tuning stability?
The C-1's Hipshot hardtail bridge with string-thru body construction is engineered specifically to maximize sustain and tuning stability. The V-1's bridge details are not fully specified in available information, but the C-1's hardtail design is generally superior for tuning retention.
