Frequently asked questions
Are the pickups and electronics identical between these two?
Both use Seymour Duncan active pickups (AHB-1 neck and bridge), master volume, and 3-way mini toggle. Product B explicitly names them as Blackouts (AHB-1N/AHB-1B), which are the same components. Both deliver high output, tight response ideal for metal and drop tunings.
What's the neck profile difference?
Product A describes a thin, fast neck profile. Product B specifies a thin U contour with a 305mm radius on both models. Both feature 24 extra-jumbo frets, neck-thru construction, and 3-piece hard maple with ebony fingerboard for technical playing.
Which is better for extended-range and djent playing?
Product B explicitly lists djent and extended range in its intended genres and emphasizes tight low end and precise note definition. Product A targets metal and progressive. Both have the same hardware and active electronics; the difference is marketing positioning rather than actual capability.
Why is one more expensive than the other?
Both are listed as premium price tier. Left-handed instruments (Product B) sometimes carry a slight premium due to lower demand and production volume, but this retailer lists them at the same tier, so actual pricing should be checked at checkout.
