Frequently Asked Questions
The U-shaped profile is comfortable and familiar, similar to the necks found on many classic guitars, but slightly thinner than some of LTD’s more modern profiles.
The FR1000 is a reliable tremolo, but it does require some understanding of its mechanics to properly set up and tune – it’s not a beginner-friendly system.
The finish is a gloss polyurethane which offers good protection, but be aware that the burst pattern means scratches will be more visible on the lighter maple sections.
