What's special about this item?

Feature:	What it does:
Roasted figured maple neck	Bright tone, full sustain and strength
Stainless steel frets	Increased strength and material integrity
Okoume body	Snappy, highly dynamic attack
25.5-inch scale neck	Increases string tension for tighter bottom end	25.5-inch scale neck Commonly found on Fenders and a huge variety of other guitars, the 25.5" scale is longer than the 24.75" scale typical of Les Paul-style guitars. A longer scale generally means tighter string tension, leading to more focused tone with sharper attack.

The overall aesthetic package is topped off with a matching painted headstock and Albert Lee hand-signed backplate. Limited to 59 pieces worldwide.
