Better top wood and pickups and still the breakthrough technology for mastering the fretboard.
An ash body with birds-eye maple top, Stratabond neck and Fralin P-92 pickups compliment the FG-561's elegant and simple styling. A smart blender control allows infinite pickup combinations to get just the right tone. Whether you want a wide-open, gut shaking overdrive or some sweet, mellow, rich jazz tones, the FG-561 PRO is the tool for the job. Note: the FG-561 PRO has 22 frets. The light system only covers 21 frets.
The Fretlight FG-500 guitar sports some significant changes, all aimed toward making the Fretlight the world's easiest guitar to play.
The FG-500's electronics have been upgraded to an all-new Sonix Flash chipset, complete with on-board capability for future growth, and fully compatible with all existing Fretlight software. The new high efficiency electronics produce the brightest and most consistent LED lights ever. Whether you're lighting a simple riff, or a scale across the entire fretboard, the lights will maintain a consistent brightness.
Additionally, all FG-500 guitars have a Stratabond neck. Stratabond is a state-of-the-art engineered hardwood that yields uncommon strength and rigidity across ever changing environmental conditions. Perfect for a guitar necks that are susceptible to expansion and contraction due to varying humidity levels. The FG-500's Stratabond birch neck will provide very consistent performance for years to come.
The Fretlight lighted guitar learning system allows a player to light-up songs, over five thousand chords and scales patterns, and riffs right on the neck of the Fretlight guitar. The Fretlight connects to a PC or Mac and there are lessons, songs and interactive videos available which all light up the guitar.
