A Tao Designed with John Browne: A Modern Approach to Metal Guitar
Developed around John Browne's requirements, the Tao fits into the lineage of guitars crafted for modern tunings, metronome precision, and rich distortion without muddiness. Its "effortless" ergonomics (high fret access, thin neck, fixed bridge) position it as a stage and studio tool, designed to maintain clarity in heavy riffs while remaining expressive in lead playing.
Who Is It For and What Styles?
This 6-string electric guitar is primarily aimed at intermediate to expert guitarists seeking immediate response and excellent tuning stability. It excels in progressive metal, djent, metalcore, and modern rock, notably thanks to its right-hand precision and the gain headroom of the pickups. The push-pull volume also allows for more open and articulate sounds for clean intros, arpeggios, and crunchier passages.
The Sound
The Chaosbreaker (neck) / Colossus (bridge) pair delivers tight lows, present mids, and well-defined highs: ideal for clear palm mutes, complex chords, and standout harmonics. The ash body adds attack and projection, while the flamed maple veneer enhances the incisive character. The ebony fingerboard, stainless steel frets, and 25.5" / 648 mm scale length contribute to a precise feel, with solid sustain and reliable intonation across the neck. The Hipshot fixed bridge promotes direct response, especially appreciated in fast rhythms and down-tuned settings.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
The guitar ships with .010-.046 strings, making a 10-46 set the safest choice to maintain the feel and tension balance. For transport, the SGR-1C option (sold separately) is designed for proper support.
