Frequently Asked Questions
The EGS Rev 7 string lock system significantly improves tuning stability compared to traditional headless designs, though initial setup is crucial.
They offer a moderate output, designed for clarity and articulation even with high gain, avoiding muddy low-end common with overly hot pickups.
It will take some getting used to, but the gradual scale length change is less dramatic than some fan fret implementations, making the transition relatively smooth.
