The Odyssey (OS) series is the very first original FGN guitar. It was designed with precision & detail stemming from a long history of guitar manufacturing experience. These guitars are relatively simple with a traditional taste yet sport very useful modern & practical features for today's musicians.
FGN Guitars and Basses with Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.) for Precision and Clarity
Discover the innovative Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.) available on all FGN guitars and basses. Developed to improve pitch accuracy and articulation, the C.F.S. features slightly curved frets that ensure each string crosses at a 90-degree angle. This minimizes string-to-fret contact, creating an even scale length across strings and delivering exceptional clarity, rich harmonics, and powerful single-note presence that cuts through any mix.
Enhanced Playability with Compound Radius Fingerboard
The compound radius rosewood fingerboard on this model has a smaller, rounder radius toward the nut, ideal for comfortable chord playing, and a flatter radius toward the neck for effortless string bending at higher registers. FGN’s J-Standard fret edge treatment further smooths the playing experience.
Premium Construction and Components for Superior Tone
- Silky Oak Veneer Top on Ash Body: The body features a striking black-bound Silky Oak veneer on an ash base, combining visual appeal with a warm, resonant tone. The rounded contours and deep edges make it comfortable for extended play.
- High-Quality Seymour Duncan Pickups: Equipped with a Seymour Duncan Pegasus humbucker at the bridge, Alnico II Pro APS-1 at the neck, and vintage staggered SSL-1 RWRP single-coil in the middle, this setup offers a full range of tones, from modern humbucking sounds to classic single-coil tones. A 5-way lever switch and coil tap mini switch provide ultimate versatility.
- Vintage-Style GOTOH Magnum Lock Tuners and FGN Tremolo Bridge: Enjoy stability and smooth performance with these quality components, designed to keep your guitar in tune through any performance.
