Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and Pale Moon Ebony top pair a warm, midrange-heavy foundation with extra brightness and note definition, while set-neck construction and the locking Tune-O-Matic bridge push sustain and tuning stability. The EMG 81 in the bridge delivers a tight, high-output attack with razor clarity for palm-muted riffing and fast picking, and the EMG 85 in the neck adds warmth and bloom for singing lead lines and thicker rhythm work. With its 24.625" scale, ebony fingerboard and X-jumbo frets, it favors expressive bends and vibrato, making it a natural fit for modern rock and metal played through high-gain amps.
