Features and functionality

  • The Steinberger GM2T features active EMG pickups that deliver a hot output and compress the sound into a less dynamic range, enhancing detail with light picking.

User experience

  • The guitar maintains tuning stability even after aggressive tremolo use, a notable benefit for performance reliability.

    Source
  • The weight distribution leans towards the bridge, causing the guitar to pull up from the player's hand, requiring adjustment compared to traditional guitars.

    Source
  • Despite the headless design, the Steinberger is a full-scale guitar, similar to a Strat, which can initially mislead players regarding its scale length.

Build quality

  • The neck is made from a plastic composite, lacking the resonant feel of an all-wood neck that some players prefer.

    Source
  • The fretboard feels nearly flat, contrary to the advertised radius, making fast runs challenging for those accustomed to a more pronounced radius.
