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 Features for Optimal Performance
- Compound Radius Fingerboard: Combines a rounded radius near the nut for comfortable chord playing with a flatter radius higher up for effortless bends and leads.
- Contoured Body Back: Provides ergonomic comfort for long performances.
- J-Standard Fret Edge Treatment: Guarantees smooth, precise fret edges for seamless playability.
- Vintage-Style Bridge with Brass Saddles: Delivers classic tone and reliable stability.
- Vintage-Style GOTOH Tuners: Ensures consistent tuning and a timeless look.
- Premium Seymour Duncan Pickups: Equipped with STR-1 (neck) and STL-1 (bridge) single-coil pickups, offering a warm, versatile sound palette. The 4-way switch expands tonal possibilities, delivering more options than traditional configurations.
