Frequently Asked Questions
The FR 1000 is a reliable workhorse, but lacks some of the finer refinements of premium Floyd Rose systems; expect a bit more friction and potential for slight tuning instability under extreme use.
It’s a substantial veneer, noticeable and adding visual appeal, but not a full-thickness maple top – it’s a cost-saving measure typical for this price range.
It’s a fairly slim and comfortable Modern C, slightly flatter than a vintage 'C', making it well-suited for faster playing and lower action.
