Another significant feature of the guitar is its tune-o-matic bridge, which keeps the guitar in tune even when performing intense guitar playing. It also has a string-thru-body design, which enhances the guitar’s sustain, while the locking tuners make string changes easier, faster and hold tune perfectly.
