American Alder
Thru-body stringing adds sustain and articulation of individual notes. An East Indian rosewood fingerboard in outfitted with the distinctive X-Fire custom offset inlay pattern and the X-Fire C-profile neck feels solid and comfortable. The Variable Spectrum Control (VSC) lets you break through traditional tonal boundaries. The user adjustable presets let you change your sound from creamy overdrive to bell-like highs – instantly. All Blade® electronics also have a passive bypass to give you pure vintage tone and ensure that you never run out of power. String-thru-body construction optimizes the string pressure on the Tunomatic for excellent attack and sustain. All controls are ergonomically positioned for fast and easy access. The angled sunken jack socket directs the guitar cable over the strap knob for secure operation.
