Trey Gunn Signature Series TGSS

14 Degree Tilt-back Headstock: This steeper angle increases sustain and tone. It is a superior design to the non-tilt-back style headstock. It takes more wood and labor to achieve the construction of this type of headstock. Furthermore, it is more difficult to locate the proper quarter-sawn laminates to achieve this design. Though this increases the cost of wood and labor, the resulting quality in tone is noticeable and worth it!

Graphite Neck Reinforcement: Our findings show that an all graphite neck tends to be a bit sterile sounding, lacking the warmth of wood. However, using graphite as a structural reinforcement increases the rigidity of the neck, adding deeper tone while maintaining the warm characteristics of the wood. This design also increases sustain, making it the optimal choice!

Bridge placement on the node: There is a place on the guitar body, that when tapped, you will hear a focused resonant note. This is where we place the bridge on the TGSS model. The advantage to this is, that it further reduces any dead notes, and helps to produce even volume levels from string to string. This results in a larger body design with increased mass. More mass, more tone.

The Drum Theory: The body of the TGSS has been elongated with bridge placement nearer to the center. Imagine a drum. When the drum is struck on the edge, you get a thin drum tone. When it is struck in the center, you get a full drum tone. The same applies to instrument design.

Weighted Tuned Headstock "WTH": We have added a proprietary technology to the construction of the TGSS model headstock. The design consists of a tuned placement of mass contained within the headstock. The result is a fuller, deeper bottom-end, heard on all notes. Furthermore, It helps in producing a more even volume level from string to string.

The Warr "TGSS" series comes with 18-volt active electronics, dual truss rod adjustment, custom designed saddles and bridge plate, Sperzel locking tuners, slider strap, and a soft gig bag.

Many wood choices are included with your Warr Guitar including loosely figured wood tops. 5 to 7 piece laminate neck and an added pin stripe laminate between the top and body core. We do have highly figured or hard to get interesting wood choices for guitar tops at extra cost.
