- Gloss Polyester Finish: The Candy Apple Red finish not only gives the body a vibrant, eye-catching look, but the durable polyester finish also protects the wood from wear and tear, while ensuring the tone remains open and resonant.

- Contoured Neck Heel: For enhanced playability, the contoured neck heel provides greater comfort and easier access to higher frets, making it perfect for players who enjoy intricate solos and fast playing.

- Two-Point Tremolo Bridge Mount (2.22" Wide): The body is pre-routed to fit a two-point tremolo system, which offers smoother, more responsive whammy bar action. The 2.22" bridge mount width ensures compatibility with modern Fender tremolos.

- Offset Four-Bolt Neck Pocket Mount: The traditional four-bolt neck pocket mount ensures a solid, stable connection between the neck and body. The offset design of the neck pocket allows for precise alignment and superior resonance, providing a solid foundation for your build.
