If You’Re A Fan Of Fast Action, You’Ll Be Happy With This Hagstrom. The Truss Rod Is Made From A Rigid, Yet Lightweight Alloy, So The Maple Neck Is Both Thin And Strong. The Fretboard Is Resinator, A Composite That’S Uniform In Density And More Stable Than Standard Woods. It Eliminates “Dead Spots,” So Each String Has Maximum Sustain.Signature Electronics
The H-52 Mini Humbuckers Have Smaller Coils Than A Traditional ‘Bucker. The Result Is A Tighter, Brighter Tone. Alnico V Magnets Let You Push The H-52S Harder For Higher-Output Sounds. If Single Coils Are Your Thing, Each Pickup Can Be Split For Stinging Leads Or Hendrix-Style Rhythms. Subtle Adjustments Of The Individual Volume And Tone Controls Yield A Wide Variety Of Workable Tones.Precision Hagstrom Hardware
