FGN Guitars and Basses with Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.) for Enhanced Tone and Precision
FGN guitars and basses are designed with the exclusive Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.), developed to enhance pitch accuracy and tonal articulation compared to conventional frets. In C.F.S., the frets are installed on the fingerboard with a slight curve, ensuring each string crosses every fret at a 90-degree angle. This design minimizes string-to-fret contact, providing a more even scale length across all strings and resulting in greater clarity, richer harmonics in chords, and powerful single-note presence.
Advanced Features for Unmatched Playability
Compound Radius Rosewood Fingerboard: The compound radius fingerboard offers a smaller, rounder radius near the nut and a larger, flatter radius toward the neck, facilitating comfortable chord playing on lower frets and stress-free bending in higher registers. FGN’s J-Standard fret edge treatment further enhances smoothness and playability.
Premium Black Limba Veneer on Alder Body: This model’s body features a deep-contoured alder with a black limba veneer top, providing both aesthetic appeal and warm tonal quality. The round edges add comfort, making it ideal for extended play.
Newly Designed Pickups: The FGN XPERT-Hf medium-hot humbucker at the bridge and FGN OS-2n/OS-2rw vintage-style single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions create versatile tonal possibilities, mounted on a sleek black 3-ply pickguard.
Vintage-Style GOTOH Tuners and FGN Tremolo Bridge: Enjoy tuning stability and smooth performance with GOTOH tuners and a two-pivot FGN tremolo bridge, designed to keep your guitar in tune through dynamic play.
