Seymour Duncan Pickups for Versatile Tones The American Series Virtuoso is equipped with a Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 humbucker in the bridge position, delivering a hot-rodded, high-output tone with punchy low end and clear articulation.

The 5-way switching allows you to explore various pickup combinations for enhanced flexibility across genres. Caramelized Maple Neck for Stability and Speed The five-piece caramelized maple neck is reinforced with graphite rods for added stability, ensuring rock-solid tuning and playability. The 12"-16" compound radius ebony fingerboard, with its smooth rolled edges, makes complex chording easy near the nut while providing a fast, comfortable surface for solos further up the neck. With 24 jumbo frets and Luminlay side dots for stage visibility, this guitar is built for speed, accuracy, and reliability. Designed for Shredders Who Demand Precision The Virtuoso is crafted for guitarists who demand precision, power, and speed. The Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo ensures reliable tuning stability even during the most aggressive playing styles. Gotoh MG-T locking tuners and Dunlop dual-locking strap buttons add further stability, making this guitar road-ready and reliable for both live performances and studio sessions.
