Lundgren pickups are high-quality pickups for electric guitars, known for excellent sound quality and precision craftsmanship. The Swedish company, founded by Johan Lundgren, is renowned for innovative designs and custom-made pickups. Their versatility adapts to different music genres, from vintage to modern sounds. The M6/M7 models are particularly popular for high-gain applications with balanced sound characteristics and high output power, ideal for rock and metal. Lundgren pickups have firmly established themselves on the market.
Sustainiac® is an innovative technology for electric guitars that extends the sustain, i.e. the length of time the string vibrates. Using an electromagnetic pickup and special electronics, Sustainiac® allows guitarists to let sounds last longer and with more control. A distinctive feature is the selective activation or deactivation of the sustain effect, allowing flexible switching between normal playing and extended sustain.
The Floyd Rose® vibrato system, developed by Floyd D. Rose in the 1970s, is a widely used, advanced system for electric guitars. Thanks to its double locking system, the guitar remains in tune, even during extreme bends and dives. This flexibility, including pull-up and dive bomb, makes it particularly popular with rock and metal guitarists. Fine adjustment is carried out precisely using micro adjustment screws, some models also offer fine tuning screws on the string riders for precise control of the tuning.
Locking tuners are specifically designed to increase tuning stability while making string changes easier. The main difference from traditional tuners is the way the strings are attached. With locking tuners, the string is not only wrapped around the mechanism, but also secured by a locking system. This system consists of a small clamping mechanism or screw that holds the string in place.
A "neck-thru" neck represents a sophisticated and high-quality construction. In contrast to guitars with screwed or glued necks, the neck extends through the entire body of the guitar. A key advantage of the neck-thru design is improved string transfer and longer sustain. Another plus point is easier access to higher frets. Due to the continuous neck, guitarists can effortlessly play up to the highest frets without a neck-body connection getting in the way.
The Flamed Maple wood is characterized by a striking pattern called "Flame" or "Tiger Stripe". This distinctive, flamed grain not only gives the guitar a visually appealing aesthetic, but also contributes to its tonal character. In terms of sound, the Flamed Maple top offers a balanced mix of brightness, sustain and clarity.
