More info about this Product

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Floyd Rose

A Floyd Rose is a double-locking tremolo system designed to allow extreme pitch modulation while keeping the guitar in tune. By locking the strings at both the nut and the bridge, it prevents string slippage, making it possible to perform deep dive-bombs, pull-ups, and vibrato effects without the tuning instability associated with traditional tremolo systems.

Floyd Rose systems are most commonly found on rock and metal guitars, where aggressive tremolo use and precise tuning stability are essential. They offer a wide expressive range but require more setup and maintenance than fixed bridges, including string balancing and fine tuning at the bridge, making them best suited to players who actively use the tremolo rather than occasional vibrato.
