FAQ
Can it get single-coil sounds?
Yes. Pull the tone knob to split the bridge humbucker into single-coil sounds.
Which strings does it come with?
ESP lists D’Addario XL120 (.009/.011/.016/.024/.032/.042) as the factory strings. Use the same gauge when you restring to keep the setup and action the same.
