What does the Sustainiac neck pickup do, and how is it different from a regular pickup?

The Sustainiac generates infinite sustain and feedback-like tones without actual feedback, controlled independently via 2 mini switches on the guitar alongside your standard volume and tone knobs. It runs on a 9-volt clip-in battery housed in the instrument, so no permanent mods are needed.

Is this guitar suitable for studio recording?

Yes. The combination of a Seymour Duncan '78 bridge pickup for warm humbucker character and Sustainiac neck pickup for articulate high-register and sustain textures makes it versatile for studio sessions tracking progressive, metal, and experimental material. Tight intonation and the 12"-16" compound radius fretboard ensure consistent pitch across all registers.

What is the neck profile, and will it feel fast?

The thin "C" profile measures 20mm at the first fret and 22mm at the twelfth, paired with a deep cutaway and ultra access joint. This design delivers fast, comfortable access across all registers and makes extended-range work feel natural without neck fatigue.

Does it come with a Floyd Rose bridge?

Yes. The E-1 FR-S ships with a Floyd Rose 1500 locking bridge and matching locking nut (41.3mm width), keeping intonation stable through aggressive playing and tremolo use.

What scale length is the E-1 FR-S, and who is it for?

The 25.5" scale suits players at advanced and professional levels who focus on progressive, metal, extended-range work, and studio sessions. It is not recommended for blues, traditional jazz, or country players.
