Key Features
Playability and Comfort
The X-400 features a Canadian roasted maple neck with a Modern D profile, designed to provide a comfortable grip for fast playing and extended sessions. Its 14-inch fingerboard radius offers a relatively flat playing surface, making it well suited to string bends, technical riffs and fast lead passages.
With 24 jumbo frets and a 24.75-inch scale length, the X-400 offers a comfortable playing feel for chords, riffs and soloing. The satin-finished neck helps reduce friction during position changes, supporting smooth movement across the fretboard.
Tonewoods and Construction
The roasted poplar body provides a balanced tonal foundation, while the Canadian roasted maple neck offers a responsive playing feel and stability. The Ebony Tech fingerboard complements the guitar's modern design with a smooth surface suited to precise fretting and fast articulation.
The double-action truss rod allows adjustment of neck relief to help achieve a comfortable setup. The satin finish gives the instrument a contemporary, understated appearance.

The X-400 is equipped with two Spira Villain custom ceramic humbuckers, designed to deliver high-output tones with a powerful, focused character. With a specified 12k output, these pickups are well suited to distorted guitar sounds, heavy riffs and expressive lead playing.

Hardware and Setup
The X-400 features a fixed bridge, providing a stable string anchor and straightforward tuning and restringing. Black tuning machines and matching hardware complement the dark green finish, while the bone nut and double-action truss rod contribute to a practical, performance-focused specification.
The fixed bridge design is particularly useful for players who prioritise tuning stability, consistent intonation and reliable performance during demanding rhythm playing.
Design Details
The X-400's distinctive offset Explorer-style body gives it a bold silhouette that stands apart from traditional electric guitar designs. Its Satin Dark Green finish creates a subtle, modern appearance, contrasted by black hardware, dark pickup covers and the Ebony Tech fingerboard.
