Frequently Asked Questions
It's a comfortable, slim taper profile, similar to the Jackson Soloist necks, but perhaps a touch thicker – still very playable and fast.
While geared towards higher-gain styles, the pickups offer decent clarity and can be dialed back for rock and even some alternative genres, though they lack a vintage warmth.
Amaranth is a durable wood, but the finish can be a bit harder and potentially show wear more visibly than oiled finishes, especially with heavy use.
