NECK: Hand made at Onyx Forge - Macassar Ebony fretboard on Flame Maple; reversed 13 degree tilt 6/side O. Forge Modern headstock; headstock face shot to match body under gloss nitro with undyed binding stripe; Paua abalone side dots; custom, Ebony truss rod cover under satin nitro, white Mother of Pearl Onyx Forge logo; 12" radius fretboard; 24.75" scale; Wizard "C" profile with rolled edges; recessed & filled fret slot ends; Grover locking 18:1 tuning machines; 24 medium jumbo stainless steel frets; zinc alloy threaded inserts for strength and outstanding sustain; double action truss rod; 1 11/16" nut width; custom laminated Graphtech & brass alloy 260 nut; Honey back and sides under satin nitrocellose lacquer.

ELECTRONICS: Loaded with dual Lace "Hemi" humbuckers, each wired through a dedicated 3-way mini switch for series/split/parallel modes. The 4-way PUP selector allows standard 2 pickup switching + both pickups in series; grounded conducting paint in all control cavities for noise mitigation.

I love these Hemi pickups. When split, they are a great balance of high output and ringing, well articulated mids. Lace winds them such that each half of the pickup has full single coil output. In the series mode, they fatten up very nicely, not muddy, yet with high output. This setup allows 24 different switching options, and is a tonal range monster.

OTHER:

  • Unitec case; Rectangular black Tolex exterior, custom fitted recessed body; storage compartment; ball corners; full length hinge; heavy duty rubber handle; black interior.
