Frequently Asked Questions

The Thrash Factor pickups are hotter and more aggressive, with a tighter, more focused midrange designed for high-gain applications.
The slim taper profile is generally fast and comfortable, but players with very large hands might find it slightly narrow.
The volute headstock and Grover tuners contribute to excellent tuning stability, even with aggressive playing and heavy tremolo use.
