Frequently asked questions
What's the main tonal difference between these two guitars?
The C-1 Exotic uses warm, articulate passive pickups with coil-split versatility, while the Demon-6 FR-S pairs an aggressive active bridge pickup with a Sustainiac neck pickup for high-output, harmonic-rich leads. The Demon-6 FR-S is designed for heavier, more aggressive output; the C-1 Exotic offers rounder, more musical midrange character.
Which tremolo system is better for aggressive players?
The Demon-6 FR-S uses a Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' Double Locking Tremolo with locking nut, engineered to maintain tuning integrity during extreme tremolo abuse. The C-1 Exotic's Wilkinson WVS50IIK is tuning-stable for normal vibrato use but not designed for the aggressive, repeated extreme dives the Floyd Rose handles.
Which guitar suits studio recording better?
The Demon-6 FR-S is listed specifically for studio sessions and offers high-output active electronics that cut through mixes and respond well to compression and overdrive. The C-1 Exotic works well in studio too but leans toward versatility across genres rather than maximum aggression.
Are both necks comfortable for fast playing?
Yes—both feature thin 'C' neck profiles, 24 jumbo frets, and 14-inch radius fretboards designed for speed and comfort. The Demon-6 FR-S specifies exact measurements (20mm at 1st fret, 22mm at 12th) and includes a longer 25.5-inch scale for tighter bends, while the C-1 Exotic emphasizes fast position shifts with its carbon fiber reinforced neck.
