HSS

HSS is a pickup configuration with a humbucker at the bridge and single-coil pickups in the middle and neck positions. This setup combines the power and drive of a humbucker for lead and heavier tones with the clarity and sparkle of single coils for clean sounds, making it a versatile option for players who want a wide range of tones from one guitar.

Maple

Maple is a dense, hard tonewood commonly used in guitar and bass construction for necks, fingerboards, and sometimes bodies or tops. It is known for its strength, stability, and smooth playing feel, making it a popular choice for instruments that need durability and consistent performance.

Tonally, maple contributes a bright, clear sound with strong attack and good note definition. It emphasises high-end clarity and tight low end, which helps notes cut through a mix, and is often paired with warmer woods to create a balanced overall tone.

White

White describes a clean, classic finish commonly used on guitars, pedals, and amplifiers. It offers a timeless look that can range from bright and modern to aged or vintage-styled, pairing easily with a wide variety of hardware and designs while keeping a simple, uncluttered appearance.
