Signature pickups, unique sound
From searing-hot trebles to smooth, immersive lows, to all that gritty goodness needed for ferocious distortion, this guitar boasts a wonderful tonal palette. It is loaded with Lari Basilio's signature set of Seymour Duncan pickups - two single coils and one humbucker - bringing you an abundance of fiery, powerful sound. The neck single coil combines Alnico 5 and Alnico 4 magnets, resulting in a deliciously vintage, full-bodied tone. In the middle position lies another single coil that mixes Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets for even more possibilities whilst the bridge humbucker offers exceptional attack and clarity. Whether you want glistening, clean sounds or fiercely high gain, the pickups on this guitar are perfect for serious players who need the freedom to delve into a range of styles.
As well as tone and volume controls and a 5-way pickup selector, you'll also have the dyna-MIX9 switching system, allowing you to sculpt your tone with precision. This innovative system offers nine sound variations, all accessible via the alter switch. Go between single coil qualities and humbucking goodness in the blink of an eye and prepare for a mesmerising performance.

Get ready for sharp attack, beautiful balance, and sublime sustain. Every note will flow articulately. And to give you smooth playability, the neck features an oil finish and the fretboard a compound radius of 228mm to 305mm.
