Frequently Asked Questions

The 3-strip maple neck feels similar to ESP's standard necks, offering a comfortable, slightly slim profile that's well-suited for fast playing.
Yes, the Floyd Rose tremolo is a standard design and relatively straightforward to adjust, though experience with floating tremolos is helpful for proper setup.
Ebony is denser than rosewood, producing a brighter, snappier tone with increased clarity and attack – a good complement to the EMG pickups.
