Built with all the hallmark Fret-King style and attributes, the Super-matic is a very cool looking beast, cut from matched, two piece centre jointed American Alder, using heritage styling cues to create a subtly nuanced classic double cut body, with cosmetics redolent of the shared history with which we are all so familiar.The 25 1/5 scale length, 24 fret, Hard Rock Maple neck, with it's classic 'Shallow C' profile, matched to a premium, close grain Indian Rosewood fingerboard with a 10 radius, finished off with an immaculate fret job, using single cut, hand crowned medium jumbo nickel silver frets assures precision, comfort and provides a playing experience which can only be described as luxurious.The Super-matic features a Hum-Single-Hum pickup configuration, with Fret-King WHHBZ33 offset pole piece 'Zebra' double coils, wound to a very authentic recipe and a Fret-King WHSM 'vintage voiced' single coil middle pickup.The combination of carefully voiced and balanced pickups, and the signature Fret-King 'Vari-coil' control, (which allows either of the double coils to be progressively wound down to single coil), creates an instrument with an exceptionally versatile palette of sounds capable of literally any musical style.Available in either Black or Original Classic Burst, complete with Fret-King hard shell carry case, the ATD loaded Fret-King Super-matic sets a whole new benchmark and opens up a host of new musical possibilities to expand any player's performance horizons, and creativity.The Wilkinson ATD self-tuning bridge, which has been under development by Trev and his team over many years, is a super low profile, real time electro-mechanical device utilising ultra hi-tech micro gearboxes, with a micro hex pickup, controls small enough not to notice, and an intuitive one touch button controlling all the functions and features of this truly incredible device.Invisibly incorporating the...
