Frequently asked questions
Do either of these guitars have tremolo?
Only the Hellraiser C-1 FR S includes a Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo system. The Sin Quirin E-1 has no tremolo—it uses a standard hardtail bridge approach for maximum tuning stability and simplicity.
Which pickup configuration suits my playing style better?
The Hellraiser's EMG 81 bridge with Sustainiac neck excels at searing leads and harmonic feedback. The Sin Quirin's EMG 81/85 pairing emphasizes rhythm tightness with the 85's warmth for cleaner tones. Choose Hellraiser for lead-heavy playing; Sin Quirin for balanced rhythm and lead work.
How do the neck profiles compare?
Both feature thin C-neck profiles on 25.5-inch scales with 14-inch fretboard radius and 24 jumbo frets. The Hellraiser measures 0.787 inches at the 1st fret and 0.866 at the 12th; the Sin Quirin measures 20 mm and 22 mm respectively. Differences are minimal—personal preference and hand size matter most.
Why is the Hellraiser listed as B-stock?
The Hellraiser is B-stock due to a minor cosmetic issue—a dull spot on the fretboard binding clear coat. It is unplayed and performs identically to new stock, making it excellent value.
