Frequently asked questions
Which guitar suits lower, heavier tunings?
The Tao-7's 27" scale length is engineered to handle extremely low tunings (drop G and below) with tight, articulate string tension. The Tao-6 LH's 25.5" scale is better suited to standard and drop-D tunings.
Is the Tao-6 LH only for left-handed players?
Yes—the LH designation means it is strung and configured for left-handed playing exclusively. If you are right-handed, you need the Tao-7 or a right-handed Tao-6 model.
What is the skill-level difference?
The Tao-7 is marked advanced/professional due to its extended range and 27" scale requiring technique adjustment. The Tao-6 LH spans intermediate to professional, making it more forgiving for players stepping up from standard 6-strings.
How do the pickups compare tonally?
The Tao-7 uses a ChaosBreaker-7 bridge humbucker voiced for aggressive extended-range response. The Tao-6 LH uses a standard ChaosBreaker neck humbucker and Colossus bridge, offering more harmonic balance and single-coil versatility via coil-split.
