The body is solid Alder, and the neck is solid select Canadian Maple that's topped with a solid Rosewood fingerboard. It also has Mother of Pearl position marker dots. The Volume and Tone controls are unique to the Voyage-Air TelAir, and are a special concentric design: Volume is the larger at the bottom, and Tone is smaller on the top. A traditional three-position toggle switch is located where you'd expect to make fast changes while on stage.Finished in a high-gloss Jet Black finish, the TelAir has a Vintage Green pickguard that reinforces the vintage roots of this instrument. Scale Length is 24 3/4", making this guitar easy to play.The revolutionary design makes traveling with a guitar a breeze.

It has a tremendous amount of percussive overtones in the pick attack, that mute out shortly thereafter to foster great, long sustain.Seymour Duncan Blackout active pickupsBlackouts capture the tone that players want in an active design using balanced inputs. The result is 12dB to 14dB less noise, plus more lows, highs and output.Schecter locking tuning machinesThese tuners feature a locking screw pin to lock the string into place for greater tuning stability.

Schecter Guitar Research Jeff Loomis Jlv-7 Nt 7-String Electric Guitar Satin Black

The Schecter Jeff Loomis JLV-7 NT 7-String Electric Guitar puts a winning combination of design and hardware in your hands. The JLV-7 adds a 7th string (or low B) to the mix, offering the advancing guitarist a wider range of arpeggios and runs to execute from any position, not to mention the ability to go deeper than before. This V-shaped guitar is made of ash with a set neck for durability and increased sustain. Schecter's technique of Ultra Access construction was used to give maximum access to all 24 frets of the maple fretboard, adorned with metal cross inlays for rapid and unambiguous guidance. Powerful EMG Active 707 Pickups with a single volume knob and 3-way switch offer simplified tone control while Grover tuners and a TonePros TOM System Bridge keep things in tune throughout your performance.Grover TunersThe original Rotomatic with an improved higher ratio gearing. The 18:1 ratio provides for finer tuning and greater stability. The finer gears provide smoother tuning and a higher degree of backlash eliminationMaple Finger BoardVery bright and dense, Maple is highly reflective. When used on a fretboard, Maple encourages tremendous amounts of higher overtones and its tight, almost filtered away bass favors harmonics and variations in pick attack.EMG Active 707 PickupsThe 707 has been leading the pack of 7-string guitar pickups since its debut in 2001. Before this model was introduced, existing 7-string pickups sounded muddy and dull on the low B string, especially when trying to hit artificial and natural harmonics, but the 707 eliminated all those problems. Featuring Alnico V loaded wide aperture coils we were able to beef up that Low B tone and at the same time provide a more responsive super tight overall sound.3-pc Maple NeckMade with 3 pieces of maple for extra stability. 3 piece necks can withstand the test of time.
