A Direct Mount Wolfgang humbucker in the bridge position has tonnes of quality locked inside its coiled wires.

As for the fretboard, it's crafted from sleek baked maple, too. Naturally, its ultra-smooth surface lets your fingers glide between riffs and solos. But it's the unique oiled finish that takes playability to the next level. Endless peak performance. Tailored for the maverick of guitar.
