Frequently asked questions
What is the actual tonal difference between these two guitars?
Tonally they are virtually identical—both use dual Fishman Fluence Modern pickups (ceramic bridge, alnico neck) with push-pull coil-split options. Unit 1813's Graph Tech Tusq nut may offer marginally cleaner articulation and sustain, but the pickups and electronics drive the tone.
Are these guitars suitable for metal and hard rock?
Yes, both are purpose-built for metal and hard rock with high-output bridge pickups, neck-thru construction for sustain, and fast playability. The ceramic bridge pickup delivers the aggression needed for aggressive lead work and heavy chords.
What makes the C-1 SLS better for intermediate to advanced players?
The ultra-thin C-neck profile enables fast fretting-hand movement, 24 X-Jumbo frets support aggressive technique, and the 12–16 compound radius balances open chords with tight lead bending. Both feature locking tuners and hardtail bridges for stability during extended sessions.
What is the practical difference between these B-stock units?
Unit 1813 includes a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (42mm) and black body binding, which are cosmetic and hardware upgrades. Unit 1756 lacks these details but delivers identical core playability and electronics, so the choice depends on whether you value those refinements.
