This Type VA1.61FR Assassin six-string guitar will set you apart from everyone else. With its distinctive, stealth looks and feature set, this guitar is a precise, professional instrument suitable for both stage and studio work. The superior and very reliable Gotoh GE1996T tremolo bridge with 12 mm thick / 33 mm long brass block offers increased sustain and resonance while all tremolo springs are mechanically muted. It also features a single Seymour Duncan USA Nazgul trembucker pickup for a gnarly yet cutting and precise tone. The Type VA1.61FR Assassin features a set-thru neck/body joint design with 25.5” scale, alder body, a fast, thin, comfortable maple neck, an ebony fingerboard with 27 super-jumbo stainless steel frets and Luminlay ‘glow in the dark’ side dots for stage use. Loaded with Solar 18:1 locking tuners, 3-way toggle pickup switching and full access neck. Available in carbon black matte with black hardware, it also includes a Solar Type VA deluxe hardcase.
