FGN Guitars with Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.) – Precision and Unmatched Clarity
Discover the groundbreaking Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.) in all FGN guitars and basses. This innovative design enhances pitch accuracy and tonal clarity. By slightly curving the frets on the fingerboard, strings intersect at a 90-degree angle, reducing string-to-fret contact. This unique approach equalizes scale length for each string, resulting in precise articulation, fuller chord resonance, and single notes that cut effortlessly through any mix.
Enhanced Playability with Advanced Features
- Compound Radius Fingerboard: Designed for optimal playability, the fingerboard features a rounded radius near the nut for comfortable chord work and a flatter radius higher up for effortless string bending.
- J-Standard Fret Edge Treatment: Ensures smooth transitions and comfort during play.
- Contoured Body Back: Adds ergonomic comfort for extended playing sessions.
- Vintage-Style GOTOH Tuners: Reliable tuning stability with a classic aesthetic.
- 6-Saddle Modern T-Style Bridge: Offers precise intonation and performance.
- Versatile Pickup Configuration: The FGN BIL bridge single-coil pickup and neck humbucker deliver a wide tonal range, enhanced by a push-pull coil tap on the tone knob for added versatility.
