- • Pau Ferro fretboard offers a smooth playing surface and a slightly warmer tone than rosewood.
CONS

- • The extended scale length (648 mm) might feel awkward for players accustomed to shorter scales.
- • While versatile, the pickup configuration leans towards heavier genres; clean tones are possible but not a strong suit.

Frequently Asked Questions
The neck profile is a Slim Oval C, which is a common and comfortable shape found on many LTD models, providing a balance between speed and playability.
Absolutely, the EMG pickups are standard and easily replaceable with other brands or models if you desire a different sonic character.
While the 7-string scale is longer, the Slim Oval C neck profile and 24 XJ frets make it surprisingly manageable, though players with very small hands might find it a bit of a stretch.
