Frequently asked questions
What is the main physical difference between these guitars?
The C-1 Standard LH is a left-handed instrument with a mahogany body and hardtail bridge, while the C-6 FR Deluxe is a right-handed basswood guitar with a Floyd Rose licensed tremolo bridge. The C-1 LH has a 42mm nut; the C-6 FR has a 1.625" SGR by Floyd Rose nut.
Which guitar is better for metal and hard rock?
Both are voiced for metal and hard rock, but the C-6 FR Deluxe offers higher output pickups (Diamond Plus vs. Diamond Standard) and tremolo expression. The C-1 LH excels at tight articulation with stable tuning if you don't need whammy effects.
Can a right-handed player use the C-1 Standard LH?
No. The C-1 Standard LH is built with full left-handed configuration—neck angle, controls, input jack, and hardware are all positioned for left-handed players only.
What is the advantage of the Floyd Rose bridge on the C-6 FR?
The Floyd Rose licensed tremolo allows pitch bending, vibrato, and dive-bomb effects while maintaining tuning stability. The hardtail bridge on the C-1 LH does not offer pitch control but requires no special maintenance or locking setup.
