Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and set-in maple neck give the Arrow-200 a thick, sustaining foundation, while the passive LH-150B bridge pickup pushes focused midrange and punchy attack suited to rhythm riffing in metal and hard rock. Its 25.5-inch scale keeps low notes tight and articulate, and the LH-150N neck position offers a rounder, clearer voice for leads, with the 3-way switch covering the ground between them. The 24 extra-jumbo frets, flatter 13.78-inch radius fingerboard, and Floyd Rose LTD tremolo support fast lead runs, wide bends, and dive-bomb effects without losing tuning.
