Compact
Headstock
The compact headstock design is consistent with the design character
of the line, but most importantly, it improves the performance
of the guitar.The larger the headstock surface, the more likely
it is to resonate and rob the string of its power. Our reduced
surface area helps to eliminate that energy drain. The smaller
size also shortens the length of the string between the nut and
the tuning machine.This shorter string length creates greater string
bearing pressure at the nut, thereby improving attack and sustain.The
angled back headstock design also increases string bearing pressure
at the nut, improving performance.The shape of the headstock also
aligns the tuning machines, so that the string travels in a straight
pat through the nut.The straight
pat prevents the string from binding up in the nut when tuning.This
is especially nice when using a vibrato. Finally, the smaller size
reduces the weight of the neck, improving the playing comfort.

Graphite
Nut
Using graphite material for the nut insures smooth tuning by eliminating the
tendency of the string to bind in the nut while tuning.The dense graphite also
improves
the attack and sustain of an electric guitar.

Arch
Top Construction
Many players prefer the look of an arch
top solid body, but are not aware of
the performance benefits that the arch
top offers. By adding extra mass under
the
bridge, in the center of the body, the instrument becomes more rigid and less
likely to rob the string of
energy.The
result is greatly improved attack and sustain.

Flange
Base Bridge
The bridge sits over the heart of the
guitar and provides the platform for
the strings. Most bridges sit on a thin
threaded shaft that is screwed into the
top
of the guitar. Our flange base bridge utilizes a large flange base to create
a much more stable platform for the bridge.The added stability reduces any tendency
of the bridge to shift and compromise string performance.

Grover™ Tuners
To say that playing
in tune is important would be the ultimate
understatement. Gover™ machine heads
have been the industry standard for half
a century. A smooth high ratio sealed gear
makes tuning far more accuate, as well
as
much faster.
