Frequently asked questions
Which guitar is better for drop tunings and low-tuning stability?
The Goregehn's 24.625" scale length is longer and better suited for extended-range and drop-tuning applications. The Wrathmaker LH uses a standard 6-string configuration optimized for modern rock and metal but with scale-length specifications not detailed in its description.
Are the pickups the same in both guitars?
Both guitars feature EMG 81 bridge and EMG 85 neck active pickups, delivering identical high-output, articulate tone and dynamic responsiveness. The primary difference lies in guitar ergonomics and body aesthetics, not electronics.
What's the main reason to choose one over the other?
Handedness is the primary deciding factor: the Goregehn is right-handed only, while the Wrathmaker LH is designed specifically for left-handed players. If you're left-handed, the Wrathmaker eliminates compromises in hardware orientation and playability.
Which guitar has a better fingerboard or neck profile?
The Goregehn features the Zakk 'C' profile neck (.83" at first fret, .96" at twelfth) with a 14" radius and 22 X-Jumbo frets, explicitly optimized for fast, aggressive playing. The Wrathmaker LH description notes an ebony fingerboard but does not specify fret size, radius, or neck profile measurements.
