What pickups does the Horizon Custom '87 use?

It features a Seymour Duncan TB-5 Custom Trembucker in the bridge position and a Seymour Duncan Hot Rails in the neck position, both offering responsive dynamics—heavier playing produces thick saturated gain while lighter touches reveal harmonic complexity and definition.

Can I access single-coil tones on this guitar?

Yes—push-pull controls on both the volume and tone knobs enable coil splitting, allowing you to select single-coil tones on either or both pickups without swapping pickups.

What is the neck like and who should play this guitar?

The extra-thin three-piece maple neck features a U contour, 25.5" scale, and 24 extra-jumbo frets, making it ideal for intermediate to advanced and professional players who value speed and extended playing comfort; it excels in hard rock, metal, and modern alternative but is less suited for jazz, folk, or traditional blues.

What are the dimensions and hardware specifications?

The guitar features a 25.5" scale length, 350mm fingerboard radius, 42mm nut width, and is equipped with a Floyd Rose 1000 double-locking tremolo, chrome hardware, and a Macassar ebony fingerboard with side position dots.

How does the construction affect tone and sustain?

Neck-thru-body construction ensures superior sustain and resonance, while the archtop alder body contributes to balanced weight distribution and tonal character—combining for a reliable instrument that excels in both demanding live performances and studio work.

Tone & Electronics

The Seymour Duncan TB-5 Custom Trembucker bridge pickup and Seymour Duncan Hot Rails neck pickup respond dynamically to playing dynamics—aggressive attack produces thick, saturated gain while lighter articulation reveals harmonic complexity and definition. Coil spitting via push-pull controls on volume and tone knobs provides access to single-coil tones on either or both pickups, expanding your tonal palette in the mix without hardware changes.
