Tonal profile

Japanese-built George Lynch signature done up as a worn 50s Strat: distressed 2-tone burst alder body, bolt-on one-piece maple neck with an extra-thin U contour and 22 XJ frets, 25.5" scale, 42mm bone nut, Gotoh vintage bridge and Sperzel locking tuners. HSS layout - ESP SS-120 single coils with a Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates humbucker at the bridge - so it keeps vintage Strat clarity in positions 2-5 and switches to a warm, PAF-flavoured bridge rather than a hot ceramic one.
