Description

Description

Versatile HSS pickup configuration

This beast covers serious sonic ground. The Seymour Duncan TB-4 JB bridge humbucker is a rock icon — high-output, harmonically rich and perfect for molten riffs. Pair that with Fender’s Texas Specials in the neck and middle positions for glassy single-coil sparkle, but with a hotter wind for extra girth. Together, they deliver everything from bluesy cleans to full-throttle shred.

Heavy relic finish

Faded Aged Vintage White over Purple Metallic — it’s a jaw-dropper. Tastefully relic’d to look like it’s lived a thousand gigs, this finish screams character. And the best part? Every ding you add just makes it more yours. Battle scars are welcome!

Key Features

Premium tonewoods: The 2-piece Alder body provides a resonant, well-balanced sound, while the Maple neck adds brightness for a snappy attack. It’s topped with a Rosewood fingerboard that’s beautifully silky under the fingers.
Compound radius fingerboard: A 9.5” radius at the nut and flatter 12″ radius from the 12th fret means you can fret chords easily and enjoy a shredder feel in the upper register.
Jumbo frets:Give you plenty of control for big bends and wide vibrato, making expressive techniques feel effortless.
Seymour Duncan TB-4 JB bridge humbucker: Legendary high-output tone with tight lows, aggressive mids and singing highs — the ultimate rock engine!
Fender Texas Special neck/middle single-coils: Overwound for extra punch and warmth, delivering bluesy grit and pronounced cleans.
Floyd Rose tremolo: Dive-bombs, squeals and pitch tricks galore with rock-solid tuning stability, thanks to its double-locking design.

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.

Electric Guitar

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.

Stratocaster

The Fender Strat – Stratocaster is one of the most iconic electric guitars ever made, celebrated for its sleek design, versatility, and instantly recognisable tone. Introduced in 1954, its contoured double-cutaway body, three single-coil pickups, and tremolo bridge set a new standard for comfort and sound flexibility. The Strat’s bright, expressive voice has defined countless genres, from blues and surf rock to funk and modern pop. Played by legends like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and David Gilmour, the Stratocaster remains a symbol of creativity and innovation, offering players endless tonal possibilities and a timeless feel that continues to inspire generations.

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.
