Frequently asked questions
Which is better for tapping and harmonic techniques?
The FR S excels here due to its dedicated Sustainiac pickup with three-way harmonic control, allowing independent feedback generation. The LH focuses on straight high-gain tone without dedicated harmonic switching.
Are these guitars significantly different tonally?
Both deliver modern metal articulation, but the FR S adds harmonic coloration via Sustainiac mode switching, while the LH emphasizes consistency and punch through its dual Lundgren setup and Hipshot bridge.
Which bridge system is more stable?
The Floyd Rose 1500 on the FR S locks strings at the bridge for extreme dive bombs; the Hipshot Ibby HM on the LH provides precision tuning stability without whammy capability. Choose based on whether you need bar effects.
Is the neck profile the same on both?
Yes, both feature the ultra-thin 'U' profile at .748" on the first fret, 12"-16" compound radius ebony/roasted maple fretboard, and neck-through construction for identical playability.
