Tight, articulated tone. DiMarzio The Tone Zone and Air Norton pickups help this guitar create a huge sound which will sing with power and clarity. The bridge humbucker has a tight mid-range with a well rounded bass response and plenty of high end attack. The neck humbucker helps to emphasise lead licks with slightly lower output. Each note will have plenty of definition and character, so you'll find it easy to mould your sound to suit your playing style.
A five way pickup selector also adds to the wide tonal flexibility which is contained within this wooden wonder. You can use the humbuckers on their own, together, or with reduced output in order to achieve your tonal desires with ease. As one of the most popular DiMarzio pickup combinations, you'll find that The Tone Zone and Air Norton complement each other perfectly, giving you everything you need sound-wise.
Fiery exotic flavour. With this beautiful, well crafted guitar sitting in your hands, you'll be able to hear and feel the beautiful resonance coming through the unique tonewoods. A zebra wood top has a defined bass and treble response as well as an evenly distributed voice to give it plenty of dynamism. Combined with a nyahtoh body, the RGEW521MZW has a tone which is both rich and unique, as well as suited to different genres and playing styles.
A bound roasted maple fretboard adds brightness and attack to your sound, which is incredibly effective for high gain settings. This is backed up with a roasted maple neck, which both blends in with the colour of the fretboard and adds even more bite to each note. The neck is a famous Wizard III design, so it is also incredibly playable, offering ultra fast access to any position on the fretboard. As such, you'll have complete freedom to improvise and play through any song you choose without restriction.
It's a beautiful sight. The RGEW521MZW has plenty of quality hardware which is as robust as it is stunning. Two solid walnut control knobs (volume and tone) blend in perfectly with the finish. The fixed bridge helps to keep the tuning steady, whilst jumbo frets offer the ability to shred at your leisure without inflicting any damage on them. With a natural finish to bring out the already beautiful zebra wood grain, the exotic RGEW521MZW is truly one of a kind with heaps of tonal substance and music making potential.
