Neck: De La Creme Neck Humbucker
Chosen to keep lows controlled for multiscale tuning while delivering a musical neck voice —
plus genuinely usable in-between tones via the 5-way blade.
What this build excels at: effortless headless balance, quick left-hand feel,
and tight, mix-ready tones that stay controlled as gain goes up.
Build information
*As with all GTR models, these instruments are built in partnership with our friends at World Musical Instrument Co. in Korea.
**No two pieces of wood are identical; therefore, the guitar photographed may not be the exact one you receive. Images are for illustrative purposes only and colours may vary slightly in production.
***Orders are available to European customers via this site. Prices do not include taxes, customs, or additional fees — these are the buyer’s responsibility.
The Hot Rock + De La Creme pairing keeps the bridge focused and confident for modern rhythm work,
while the neck stays musical for leads and cleans. Add the 5-way blade, and those in-between positions become a genuine “third and fourth voice”.
Hot Rock — Bridge
Humbucker • Strong mids • Controlled lows
A bridge voice built for authority and control — stays defined under gain, keeps palm-mutes tight,
and holds its place in a dense mix.
Punch + cut: mid presence that keeps riffs forward.
Modern tightness: controlled low end suited to multiscale tuning.
Gain-friendly clarity: stays articulate as saturation increases.
Blends well: useful in-between positions on the 5-way.
Best for
Modern rock and metal rhythm, punchy leads, tight palm-mutes, and mix-forward tones.
What you’ll hear
Bold mids, controlled lows, and an “immediate” feel that stays defined under gain.
De La Creme — Neck
Warm & clear • Singing leads • Musical cleans
Tuned for sweetness and clarity — expressive lead tone and clean definition without getting muddy or harsh.
Singing lead voice: smooth highs + vocal mids.
Clean definition: chord clarity and note separation.
Useful contrast: a real switch in character from the bridge.
Middle positions shine: bright, usable blended voices on the 5-way.
Best for
Clean passages, melodic neck leads, warm rock solos, and smooth rhythm textures.
What you’ll hear
Sweet, open neck tone with musical mids and a smooth top end — clear without sounding thin.
Why this pairing is deliberate: the bridge delivers drive and definition, the neck stays sweet and expressive —
and the 5-way positions add extra mix-ready voices without needing a pickup swap.
