Featuring a bolt-on five-piece multi-laminated caramelized maple/maple neck reinforced with graphite rods that provide rock-solid stability all the way up to the 24th fret, the Virtuoso’s ultra-fast 12-16” compound radius, streaked-ebony fingerboard with rolled edges is built for easy chording and riffing near the nut, as well as speedy scale runs as you move up the neck. The American Series Virtuoso also features a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel, which allows for quick neck relief tweaks on the fly, plus Luminlay side dots to ensure that you always land on the right fret—even on the darkest stages!
