Accordingly, a Floyd Rose 1500 Series Double Locking Tremolo is used as a bridge, with which even the sharpest dive bombs and most aggressive squeals can be realized without any detuning. In addition, Grover Rotomatic tuners with a transmission ratio of 18:1 work on the head plate.
Amazing Instrument and pickups. The guitar came with no flaws, low action & ready to play. The pickups are amazing if they had the coil splitting functionality we would have been talking about a very versatile instrument. This is an upgrade I will do in the future. The pickups are noiseless and it's highly recommended for studio recordings. Fret work and edges very smooth, ultra fast neck not as thin as an Ibanez Wizard but I prefer it. Woods are very good too and finish is flawless.
