The body of the Hellraiser V-1 not only looks awesome, but allows you unhindered access to the 25-1/2″ scale maple set neck with Ultra access that is fitted with a rosewood fingerboard set with 24 jumbo frets. Thru-body string threading adds to the tonal sustain of this instrument. The Hellraiser V-1 features electronics that are unsurpassed. In the Bridge position, an EMG 81 TW has a dual-mode design that gives you all the crunch and aggressiveness of the original EMG 81 plus a single-coil sound with a fatter tone with plenty of punch and clarity. Dual internal preamps, one tuned for single-coil mode and the other for dual-coil mode, give the 81TW two distinct sounds. An EMG 89 in the neck position also has separate preamps each providing custom outputs for both dual coil and single coil modes. The 89 is loaded with Alnico V magnets for a vintage strat sound. The different modes are accessed through push/pull volume pots. Together these pickups give you a range of tones that will surprise you and your audience. Black hardware, Abalone binding, gothic cross inlays and a black satin finish all add to the dark vibe of this demonically inspired guitar.
