Frequently Asked Questions

The Nailbombs are generally hotter and more aggressive than the Aftermaths, with a tighter low-end and more focused high-end response.
Absolutely; the mahogany and rosewood will mellow out the Nailbomb’s high-end slightly, creating a balanced and powerful tone perfect for rock and metal.
While they are high output, the Floyd Rose's inherent brightness can help balance the Nailbomb's punch, but be prepared for potentially higher tremolo arm usage.
