DISC GJ2 By Grover Jackson Hellhound Electric Guitar, Dirty Natural

Full Description

Alder Body

The Hellhound features an Alder body which produces a rich, full tone with warm characteristics. The wood offers an excellent sustain to create a strong sound, with sizzling highs and excellent lows. Its midrange is cut slightly, allowing it to come across beefy to increase the bass response. The guitar is designed with a classic Tele shape and given a dirty natural finish, creating a stylishly vintage look that reflects its classic tones.

Maple Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard

The maple and rosewood combination gives the guitar exceptionally thick, firm lows and a sizzling high end that’s both sparkly and creamy. The maple neck offers bright characteristics, tightening up the guitar's overall tone and adding some cut for a midrange snappy attack. The rosewood fingerboard ‘furs up’ the maple's tone, giving it some warmth while opening up the mids. The maple and rosewood work together to provide a punchy, gnarl edge when the strings are hit hard, but become clear with light to medium picking.

Habanero Pickups

The GJ2 Hellhound features a set of Habanero pickups to deliver a range of tonal possibilities, perfect for playing a variety of musical styles. In the bridge position is a low heat, single coil pickup which provides powerfully harsh tones. The single coil pickup can scream as much as you want, whilst also offering a clean smooth sound, perfect for country, blues, and rock. In the neck position is the T.D 91 which is built with a soapbar design and provides a layer of power to the guitars sound. The versatile T.D 91 offers lots of body and plenty of character, creating a warm bite that adds a layer of depth to your sound.

Traditional Bridge

A traditional bridge is added the guitar, adding to the classic aesthetic of the Hellhound whilst offering incredible string stability. The bridge houses the guitars single coil pickup, enhancing the tonal output and giving it a slight twang for a classic feel. Incorporating a string through body construction, the bridge provides improved tonality and sustain by transferring vibrations and resonance from the string to the body.

Hipshot Staggering Tuners

a set of Hipshot tuners are used on the Hellhound guitar, offering a precise turning ratio of 18:1 with quick string changes and excellent tuning stability. With an open gear design and a locking mechanism, the tuners have different post heights for a staggered layout resulting in no string tree.

Jescar 57110 Frets

Jescar 57110 frets and used on the fingerboard, built with stainless steel for a sturdy and strong construction, the frets will remain sturdy for many years. Each fret is precision cut and perfectly laid on to the fretboard, providing a smooth surface that won’t take away from the guitars sound.
