WILD CUSTOMS FIREWILD SUNBURST CUSTOM ELECTRIC GUITAR
Justin has long been a fan of the quality, attention to detail, and custom features from Wild Custom Guitars, and hand-selected this "FireWild" electric 6-string guitar to be offered in this GUITAR VAULT. This "FireWild" model harkens back to classic designs and aesthetics that define "Rock & Roll." The Seymour Duncan pickups are perfectly voiced for a clear, sustained, proud tone, and the feel and balance of this guitar have to be felt to be totally appreciated.
The Bigsby Tremolo unit is installed using a Vibramate plate, so it can easily be converted to a fixed tailpiece without modifying the guitar.

SET-IN NECK
A set neck transfers the resonance between neck and body more freely and immediately than does a bolt-on neck. The result is usually heard as a little more warmth and fullness in the set-neck guitar. This thicker, fatter sound is often sort out by heavy blues and rock’n’roll afficionados.
24-3/4″ SCALE
The Gibson 24-3/4″ scale is one of the most common guitar scale length. Being shorter than the Fender 25-1/2″ scale, the Gibson 24-3/4″ scale has a lower tension/easier to play feel, and a warmer tone.
