This guitar was created during the Tenua “High-Gain” Guitar special. The name already indicates for which sounds the instrument was primarily conceptualized. The mix of materials ensures a balanced, powerful and yet differentiated sound. The simple look harmonizes perfectly with the overall concept of the guitar. The finish of the Bare Knuckle Aftermath, in combination with the dot inlays made of Paua, sets striking visual highlights. The focused concept is also emphasized by the reduced features. The dynamic control of the pickup, however, leaves open further possibilities for sound shaping and invites for sound experiments.
