Key Features

Playability and Comfort

The V-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, intricate riffs and technical lead passages.

With 24 jumbo frets and a 25.5-inch scale length, the V-400 provides a full two-octave playing range and familiar electric guitar string tension. The satin neck finish 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, while the satin body finish gives the guitar a contemporary, understated appearance.

Electronics

The V-400 is equipped with two Spira Villain custom ceramic humbuckers, designed to deliver high-output tones with a powerful, focused character. Their 12k output specification makes them well suited to distorted guitar sounds, heavy riffs and expressive lead playing.

• Neck Humbucker: Provides full-bodied tones for melodic lead work, thicker clean sounds and sustained notes.

• Bridge Humbucker: Delivers punchy, aggressive tones suited to high-gain riffs and cutting lead lines.

• Dual Humbucker Configuration: Offers a powerful tonal foundation for hard rock and metal.

• Three-Way Pickup Selector: Switches between the neck pickup, bridge pickup or both pickups together.

• Master Volume and Tone Controls: Allow straightforward adjustment of output level and tonal character.

Hardware and Setup

The V-400 features a fixed hardtail bridge with a string-through-body design, providing a stable string anchor and supporting consistent tuning and intonation. Locking tuning machines help simplify string changes and improve tuning stability during regular playing.

The bone nut and black hardware complement the guitar's practical, performance-focused specification, making it well suited to rehearsals, recording and live performance.

Design Details

The Flying V body gives the V-400 an unmistakable silhouette, making it an excellent choice for players who want their instrument to stand out on stage. Its Satin Black finish creates a sleek, modern appearance, complemented by matching black hardware and the dark Ebony Tech fingerboard.
