A magnificent mahogany build
The benefits of using mahogany as a tonewood are endless. Luckily, the C-1 FR-S Blackjack boasts it for both the body and neck. Mahogany is wonderfully sturdy, giving you the freedom to play as aggressively as you like, for as long as you like. It won't tire, in fact, it will only get tighter and more tonally exquisite with age. So, you have years of exhilarating gigs to look forward to. Its warm and resonant tone is produced by an emphasis on midrange frequencies, offering a gloriously balanced sound. But it still has sublime, punchy tonal qualities that are perfect for rock and metal players. The way the body has been crafted offers immense playability thanks to the striking double cutaway which provides easy access to the higher frets, and it looks simply stunning too. Such a striking finish begs to be matched with your crazy, skilful playing.
Effortless playing
A neck with magical wonders. Its incredible stability is provided by carbon fibre reinforcement, allowing you to play as ferociously as you like. Whether you're strumming chunky, aggressive chords or fretting in skilful, fearless fashion, you can do so without anything slowing you down. The thin-C profile then grants you sumptuously playability, it is superbly comfortable to hold and will sit effortlessly in your hand. Prepare for a dreamy playing experience.
Mounted onto the robust mahogany neck is an exquisite ebony fretboard that brings a whole host of practical and sonic qualities. Slide across the frets with ease, ebony's naturally high oil content gives it a beautiful, smooth finish and its durability means you can be sure it won't wear away from excessive riffing. Underneath your fingertips you will have a tonewood that is highly responsive, giving you a bright and crisp attack, perfect for glorious articulation.
