Frequently Asked Questions
The Thin U is thinner than the thicker 'Wizard III' found on some ESP guitars, offering a faster feel but potentially less grip for some players.
Yes, EMGs are relatively common and serviceable, though you'll need a soldering iron and some basic electronics knowledge or a qualified tech.
It will take some getting used to, but the longer scale offers tighter low-end response and improved clarity on the lower strings – a worthwhile adjustment for 7-string players.
