Overview
The MTD Kingston Z is the flagship model of the Kingston line and takes many of its design cues from MTD's Handmade USA MTDs.
To further enhance the relationship between the Kingston and USA models, the Z features an alder body and roasted maple neck with an ebony fingerboard more aligned with what customers expect from an MTD instrument. The roasted neck not only provides more stability, but also makes for a more 'broken in' sound and feel. MTD's asymmetrical neck and compound fingerboard radius allow the player hours of comfortable, fatigue free playing. The Buzz Feiten Tuning System provides precise intonation up and down the fretboard.
- Supreme playability
- Alder body with Maple Burl top
- Asymmetrical Roasted Maple neck
- Roasted Maple neck provides a 'broken in' sound & feel
- Carbon-reinforced neck construction
- Fretless Ebony fingerboard with compound radius
- Custom MTD Split Coil pickup set
- 3-Band Active EQ with +/- 6dB of boost/cut
- Pickup blend knob to fine tune balance
- Buzz Feiten Tuning System for precise intonation
- Top-loading, Quick Release Bridge
Like all MTD Kingston instruments, the Z undergoes a rigorous quality control and setup process in our Kingston, NY facility from master technicians. The robust, top-loading, Quick Release Bridge allows for speedy and easy string changes, while the Licensed Hipshot Ultralite Tuners provide confidence without neck dive.
The active preamp provides +/- 6db of… read more boost and cut across bass/middle/treble. The reverse split coil pickups provide punch and clarity throughout the spectrum. The matching headstock provides an elegant, high end look and the body contours follow an ergonomic and attractive design which lends itself to many fantastic finishes.
