Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between these two B-stock conditions?
The Satin Trans Blue has fret binding cracks and a white spot on the body from handling. The Satin Trans Purple is unplayed, meaning it has only storage-related cosmetic marks, no playing wear. Both are fully functional.
Are the pickups and hardware identical?
Yes. Both feature active EMG 81 bridge and EMG 60 neck pickups, Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' locking tremolo, 3-piece maple necks with carbon fiber rods, 24 X-Jumbo frets, and 25.5" scale length.
Which is better for metal and drop tunings?
Both are equally suited. The 25.5" scale, high-output EMGs, tight lows, and rock-solid tremolo system make either one ideal for metal, hard rock, and aggressive drop-tuning applications.
Is the price difference justified by the condition difference?
If the cosmetic flaws on the blue model don't affect playability and you prefer that color, it offers better value. If you want a truly unplayed instrument and prefer purple, the slight premium for the unplayed condition may justify the cost.
