Electronics: Swing GH-401 Preamp

GH-401 Preamp controls 3-band equalizing: Treble, Middle, and Bass. With the toggle switch in the "active" position, all knobs function as an active bass. With the toggle switch in the "passive" position, Bass, Middle & Treble knob have no function while other 2 knobs function as usual.

Copper shielding of pickup itself helps noise reduction. 18 volt output supports tight and powerful sound of G1 Active, and high output guarantees outstanding responsivity to attack; from sensitive touch to hard digging, the pickups deliver 100% of what players want to do.

Nubone Nut & Spoke Nut Truss Rod

All SWING Electric Guitars & Basses are equipped with Graph Tech Nu-Bone Nuts. Compared to standard materials, you'll hear crystal clear bell-like high end, big open lows, and a noticeable increase in overall sustain.
Graph Tech Nuts have quickly become an important tone performance tool for many guitar manufacturers, luthiers and playing professionals around the world. Especially, Nu-Bone nuts have rich tone and sustain, without the inconsistency found in ivory, bone and other natural materials. Bone and ivory have hard and soft spots (grain), throughout each piece, hampering consistent transfer of vibrations to the guitar.

You can adjust the truss rod by using Spoke wheel adjustment at the end of the neck. Instead of the adjustment being at the headstock where you would remove a cover and find the right allen wrench etc.
