FACTORY STANDARD — Black Friday Hype (6-String)
Red / Purple Grain Gradient
The Red/Purple Gradient Black Friday is a Perth Factory-built 6-string that blends show-stopping visuals with the tight, modern performance the Hype platform is known for. A resonant Swamp Ash body, 3-piece laminated flamed maple bolt-on neck, and Ebony fretboard deliver fast attack, strong note separation, and a snappy, articulate response.
This build is loaded with a powerful CustomShop pickup pairing: Hot Rock (Bridge) + Hybrid (Neck) — a punchy, amp-driving bridge voice paired with a clear, versatile neck tone that stays usable across cleans and gain.
Why this one feels so tight
The multiscale hardtail platform gives you tuning stability and string-to-string definition. Pair that with swamp ash + a bolt-on maple neck for fast attack, and you get a Hype that feels immediate under the hands.
