Bolero EX
Bird's Eye Maple Top
Very frequently used on guitar necks due to its tonal properties, Bird's Eye Maple top is not frequently seen on the body, but for no good reason. It is interesting, always unique, and a fabulous exotic touch. Great sound, unique grains.
ABS Binding
A unique accent where the top joins the body, ABS binding surrounding the body accents the color and guitar. In white, cream or black depending on the color.
Matching Headstock
Body and headstock are finished in the same wood and/or color. Great accent that brightens the entire look of the guitar through a subtle, but fabulous accent. Great finishing touch.
Transparent Finish
Transparent finishes are among the most desired in guitars as they allow for both the unique color and the natural grain of the wood to show through. The darker grain provides a dynamic contrast to the lighter grains giving you a 3-Dimensional and unique look.
DBZ Stop Tail
Custom engineered by DBZ, the DBZ Stop Tail provides the ultimate in look and performance. The stop tail design has been used by some of the world's most popular and timeless guitars. The DBZ Stop Tail, when used with our Tune-O-Matic bridge provides the ultimate in ease, tone and reliability.
Seymour Duncan DBZ/Diamond Signature Pickups
Co-designed by amp designer Jeff Diamant (Diamond Amps and DBZ/Diamond founder) and Seymour Duncan, the DD-1 DBZ/Diamond Hole-shot pickup is aggressive, high output, but clean and smooth. The DD-5 DBZ/Diamond 4-Stroke neck pickup is classic, round and warm.
Grover Tuners
Often considered the world's finest tuning machines, the Grover tuners are a triumph in engineering and style. The housing provides a maximum bearing for worm gear and string post and designed to eliminate backlash and slippage. Countersunk tension tension screw permits players to regulate turning tension to any degree. Gear box has a special lubricant for lifetime, trouble-free service.
Contoured Set Neck
DBZ's Contoured Set Neck method is arguably the most popular neck joint style amongst high-end electric guitars. The set neck is carefully cut to match its mounting point on the guitar body and the two sections are joined to maximize strength and minimize neck wiggle. Most notable is the amazing feel of the neck joint when you need it most - near the highest frets. Our contour feels fast, comfortable and as if the neck joint isn't even there.
