Sales Pitch:
Having the perpendicular fret a bit higher at the 12th fret, as well as an easily playable 25"-26" multi scale length, the design is meant for players who spend a lot of time not only down in the low-lows but an equal amount of time higher up on the treble clef. Blazing thru scales and sweep picking is a breeze for players wanting a multi scale instrument without the awkwardness of overly-crooked frets on the upper end.
Woods:
A unique pairing of woods combined with gold-everything(including frets) hardware scheme makes this guitar truly ornate. Similar to genuine mahogany tonally and weight, Ebiara is an unjustly uncommon guitar wood. The bookmatched top with golden beam down the middle(as well as fretboard and all other laminates) is known as Amazon Rosewood, and is as close as it gets to Brazilian rosewood in terms of grain, color, darkness, and tone.
Pickups -
From Bare Knuckle:
The Polymath humbuckers are an antidote to scooped, harsh or boomy tone, they’re all about broad, characterful midrange, addictively juicy playing feel and trim, percussive low end. They’ve got just the right amount of output to be capable of any style, whether classic cleans, wailing leads or brutal chugs and anything in between. That said, the Polymaths have real personality too: the bridge pickup has chunky pick attack, vocal midrange and a harmonic richness that glorifies the nuances in your playing, while the neck pickup is deep, woody and clear when clean, taking on a liquidy and articulate character under gain. Dynamics-wise, the Polymaths are right in the sweet spot again: they have a rewarding responsiveness that invites you to dig in, but they’re not fussy or unflattering on your technique.
The coils also combine and split beautifully, but my personal favourite is the parallel-coil sound of each pickup - they really sound somewhere between a P90 and a hot tele. It’s amazing to have such genuinely usable alternative voices at your disposal.
Tuners -
From Graphtech:
With RATIO, each string has it's own calibrated gear ratio. You get fine tuning on the sensitive, thicker core strings (like the plain G string or Low E string) and coarser tuning on the thinner cores; anywhere from 12:1 to 39:1 gear ratio. With RATIO®, a half-turn is a semi-tone! Every string reacts the same to any tuning adjustment. Predictable, precise tuning, on every string.
Total control and precision which makes tuning, re-tuning and open tunings fast, precise and intuitive.
The specific gear ratios per string are:
1st 12:1, 2nd 20:1, 3rd 35:1, 4th 20:1, 5th 24:1, 6th 39:1, 7th 48:1
