CUSTOM SHOP GUITAR OPTIONS

Standard on guitars and basses, hard rock Maple is strong and stable.
ORDER CODE: NOT APPLICABLE

This method of cutting the maple boards results in the endgrain being directed about 45° to 90° from the face of the fingerboard. This cut results in a more stable neck and is recommended for players who tour as it better withstands substantial changes in temperature and humidity.
