The Altitude Summary
Exuding a vintage charm yet equipped with contemporary features, the Shabat Lynx HSS shines as an exceptional guitar. It sports a weight of 7.7 pounds and a custom Lake Placid Blue finish, achieved through Shabat's subtle relic'ing method in nitrocellulose. The Lollar Special S pickups in the neck and middle positions deliver clear, bell-like tones, complemented by the Lollar Imperial High Wind bridge humbucker for richer crunch and intensity.
The guitar combines vintage aesthetics with modern reliability, featuring a 2-point bridge for easy adjustments and a truss rod accessible at the neck heel. Its hard maple neck with a rosewood fretboard enhances playability, adorned with Dunlop 6105 nickel-silver frets and 1/4" Pearloid inlays. The '60s Slim C neck profile, tapering from 0.79 to 0.92 inches and transitioning from a 9.5 to 12-inch compound radius, facilitates smooth play up the fretboard.
This guitar fulfills the dreams of modern-vintage strat enthusiasts with its thoughtful blend of HSS pickup configuration, '60s-style rosewood fretboard, and eye-catching aesthetics.
