Frequently asked questions
Which guitar suits lower tunings and extended-range playing?
The Tao-7 with its 27" scale length is engineered for extended-range metal and can handle lower tunings while maintaining tight string tension. The Danskimo-6 LH has a standard 6-string configuration and is better suited to conventional tunings.
What is the key difference in pickup setup?
The Danskimo-6 LH uses a single Fishman Fluence Tosin Abasi pickup with a push-pull voicing switch for two tonal characters. The Tao-7 pairs a Schecter USA Colossus-7 neck pickup with a ChaosBreaker-7 bridge pickup for greater tonal flexibility and independent control.
Which is better for a left-handed player?
Only the Danskimo-6 LH is available in left-handed configuration. The Tao-7 is right-handed only.
How do the neck profiles differ?
The Danskimo-6 LH features a C-profile wenge neck with dual carbon fiber rods designed for extended reach and precision. The Tao-7 has an ultra-thin U-profile (19mm-20mm) with carbon fiber reinforcement optimized for speed and technical playing.
