Lipstick Tube single-coil pickups

Crystal clear highs with the perfect amount of twang and a tight bass.

Enhanced sustain, tone and resonance

The Tune-O-Matic bridge with a string-thru body design helps to promote increased sustain throughout the guitar, improving the tone and resonance of the instrument. This boost in sustain allows the notes to hang in the air for longer.

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.
