Frequently asked questions
What's the main structural difference between these two?
The Avenger FR is a seven-string with a 25.5-inch scale, while the E-1 FR is a six-string. Both share the same carbon-fiber-reinforced three-piece maple neck, compound fingerboard radius, and Floyd Rose 1500 tremolo, but the extra string on the Avenger extends tuning range downward.
How do the pickup systems differ?
Both use Fishman Fluence Modern pickups (ceramic bridge, alnico neck), but the E-1 FR adds independent Voice switching on each pickup via push/pull controls, allowing you to toggle between two distinct voicing modes per pickup. The Avenger has standard push/pull volume and tone controls for shaping but not voicing selection.
Which is better for drop tunings and extreme metal?
The Avenger FR's seventh string makes it ideal for extremely low, extended-range tunings common in progressive and extreme metal. The E-1 FR can handle drop tunings on six strings but won't access the deepest range the Avenger provides.
Are they equally fast to play?
Both feature identical ultra-thin C-profile necks, 24 X-Jumbo frets, and compound radius fingerboards designed for technical speed. The main ergonomic difference is fret access: the Avenger's deeper Ultra Access joint may feel marginally more comfortable on the highest frets of a seven-string, while the E-1 offers the weight and balance advantage of a six-string.
