- American Basswood body
The American Basswood body delivers a natural and flat tone.

- Ergonomic rear body contour (Alpha)
The upper side of the body back has a long sculpted contour running the full length of the upper horn. This design naturally angles the guitar slightly upward when held against the player's body, which also angles the fretboard. This angle efficiently enhances fretboard visibility and the guitar's playability, requiring minimal effort from the player and allowing for more focus on playing.

- Flat body edge (lower side)
The lower side of the body is made flat and wide, providing a large and stable contact area between the guitar and the player’s leg, preventing the guitar from unwanted movement or slippage, while playing sitting down.

- Ergonomic Elbow contour
The Alpha’s elbow contour is sculpted to form a slight scoop right where the player’s arm touches the body. This design improves playing position and comfort which helps further stabilize the picking hand.

- Neck Joint (Alpha)
The Alpha series features an innovative, three-screw neck joint design, which utilizes two screws mounted within an oval-shaped stainless-steel plate and one additional screw driven directly from the body into the neck. This unique construction ensures joint strength while improving access to the high frets and enhancing overall playability.

- Parallel Wizard AS 5pc Maple/Walnut neck
This Parallel Wizard AS neck has a more rounded shape towards the bass side, while retaining its even thickness of the 21mm across all positions. This asymmetric shape provides a more comfortable grip and natural feel that makes techniques like sweeping and string skipping much easier. The combination Maple/Walnut neck offers tonal clarity and superior attack.

- Ebony fretboard
Ebony produces tight lows and mid range with a strong attack in the high end and features a quick response and rich sustain.

- Fanned frets and multi-scale improves the intonation, ergonomics, and overall playing experience of the guitar, and can handle even the most unique of modern tunings.

- Jumbo Stainless Steel frets
Stainless steel frets boast excellent corrosion resistance. The wide and tall fret-type offers a quick response and effortless articulation when playing chords and clear tone when playing single notes.

- Fishman® Fluence™ Modern Humbucker Alnico / Fluence™ Modern Humbucker Ceramic pickups

- Fishman® Fluence™ Voicing switch

- Mono-rail G2 bridge

- Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads
The Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads achieve incredible tuning stability, cutting down string-changing time.
