This means you can focus on the things that matter most - your jaw-dropping playing and blinding performance. You'll be able to express yourself clearly and with complete accuracy all along the fretboard, and your licks will glimmer with character.
Featuring a Custom Shop quality Maple neck with a AAA Rosewood fingerboard and a 9.50" radius, this guitar boasts best-in-class playability.
