customize and optimize it for top live and studio performance...
Well, all possible "custom" improvements have already been applied to the Plus.
The Plus was designed for city and cover bands' players who need an easy
portable, wide array of useful tones in a single, easy portable instrument.

WHAT'S UNIQUE
There is no sense in making another guitar if it does not offer
something unique and different.
The Plus is equipped with the new WVP6-SB Wilkinson tremolo which features some cool features typical
"guitar doctor modified" tremolos. The strings are sunken into the sustain block with the ball end
getting as close as possible to the bridge plate and saddle.
This, along with the use of graphite nut,
roller string tree and staggered locking tuners, dramatically increases strings and tuning stability when tremolo
is in use.
The saddles are firmly hold in place by the massive bridge structure and the sustain block
is steel made in the best "vintage" tradition.
The Frudua 5 way switch allows bridge and neck pickups to work together (in place of the middle single coil) in position 3 for that gorgeous
"telly" tone and automatically selects the bridge humbucker coil in position 4 for best "twang" tone. All the most used tones you need are there on the Plus,
ready available at the flick of a switch.
The Plus is equipped with a set of new Frudua locking tuners. Frudua locking tuners gathers all the most high end
locking tuners features in the market all in just one item. 20:1 gear ratio, comfortable and immediate to use rear locking design and 2+2+2
staggered height posts, meaning that the E and B posts are lower than the G and D posts which are lower than the A and low E posts.
This allows the proper nut angle and lowest friction on nut. They are also available for you as a replacement part for your guitar.
A new design neck heel allows total access to the last frets. The neck is
tightened with 5 screws thus delivering the best tone transmission.
OTHER FEATURES
Great care is put in the neck pocket fitting. A tight fit neck joint is indeed very important for the strings'
vibration to finely transmit the wood tone to the from the nut to the bridge and to the pickups.
The neck is the most wooden crucial point in the electric guitars tone chain. The Plus neck is made of resonant
hard rock maple coming from Canada and are satin finished to offer a very smooth and fast feel.
Canadian maple fretboard with professionally refined frets and beveling completes the Plus neck's features.
The nut is made of Graphite, a self lubricating material and it is professionally refined to ensure no string's friction.
