A Modern, Streamlined, and Efficient Baritone Superstrat
In the spirit of contemporary performance-oriented superstrats, the SN-1 condenses the essentials: a single powerful active humbucker, luthiery designed for rigidity and stability, and premium hardware. The "Stratocaster" format ensures familiar comfort, while the glossy black finish remains sleek and professional.
Who Is It For, and Which Styles?
Ideal for intermediate to expert guitarists playing in low tunings (standard B, Drop A, etc.). Its tight response and clarity suit modern metal, djent, metalcore, as well as alternative rock requiring an extended range and sharp riffs.
Sound Characteristics
The Fishman Fluence Modern ceramic delivers a high output level, tight lows, and incisive highs. The push/pull split opens a snappier, more articulate register, useful for rhythm parts and arpeggios. The swamp ash provides attack and projection, the ebony fingerboard enhances definition, while the roasted maple neck stabilizes the instrument. The 27" scale length emphasizes the tightness of the low end and sustain, and the bolt-on neck maintains a sharp attack.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
Sets of 6-string baritone strings (e.g., 12-60 or 13-62) to maintain tension and intonation in low tunings.
