Frequently Asked Questions
The LH-301s offer a similar aggressive output to EMG 85s, but with a slightly more open and raw high-end response.
Roasted jatoba is significantly more stable than standard jatoba; it's less susceptible to humidity changes and warping, making it quite durable.
Bolt-on necks generally have a slightly different tonal character, often perceived as a bit more 'snappy', but the overall sustain is still very respectable on this LTD.
