I don't usually like signature products because they're built to other people specifications but this guitar is built for the metal player in mind mick tompson is a smart guy and a great musician most people do not give him the credit he deserves but this guitar feels like a custom shop what's basically it is to pick ups are high out put but have passive qualities I love Floyd Rose style bridges but do not ever need a tremolo this bridge give your the feel of a Floyd rose with the locking and fine tuners but with out the extra hole in the guitar and the Benifits of a locked down bridge. If you play dropped tunings this is your guitar custom shop and custom case for a more then reasonable price.
