Bold sound
The MH-401FR boasts the classic pairing of EMG 81 and 85 active humbucking pickups. These pickups carry a clear top end and huge lows that sound great for clean passages. The pickups are also well known for their high output and ability to conjure thick overdrive from any amplifier. The body woods deliver a combination of mahogany's warm midrange and maple's attack and sustain. And the 25.5" scale length gives each note a strong fundamental for punching through dense mixes, and sound great when down tuned.
High performance
Every aspect of this instrument is engineered for technical playing styles. The Thin U neck profile is fast under your fingers, joining the body with a sculpted heel that allows for easy high-fret access. And its 24 extra-jumbo frets offer maximum control. The simple volume, tone, and 3-way switch electronics package makes dialing in your tones a quick process. And the Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo system grants wide-ranging pitch control and solid tuning stability.
Stunning looks
The matching quilted maple on the top and headstock of this guitar are what separates the MH-401FR from other designs. While it excels at high-gain metal styles, the MH-401FR will look at home in any situation where fast playing is the order of the day. Single-ply white binding surrounds the body, fretboard, and headstock. And the offset block inlays help maintain a streamlined appearance for the fretboard. Sweetwater players of all genres love the sleek curves of the MH-401FR.
