Setting the “none more black” tone for this duo is the JA-20HH, featuring some gnarly pickups for super heavy tones. In contrast from the killer looks, the body of this guitar is contoured making it comfortable to play.

Mahogany Body

What do you get? A mahogany body and bolt-on C profile mahogany neck are unusual choices for an offset body guitar. Forget surf-guitar sparkle, this mahogany body guitar serves up tones as dark as your soul. A 22-fret neck with a 648mm scale length will allow you to shred with ease. Solidly built, the JA-20 HH has diecast metal tuners and a hard-tail bridge, matching the satin finish.

Active Pickups

The JA-20HH is powered by two active, high-gain HBZ humbucker pickups, controlled via a 3-way toggle switch, tone and volume knobs. There’s a lot of guitar for the money here with the JA-20HH promising a range of diverse tones, not just of the thrash metal variety!

At this price point it’s nice to see a set mahogany neck which features a comfortable C profile with 22 frets sitting upon a roseacer fretboard with a 305mm radius. Again, we have some killer HBZ humbucker pickups. You’ll be able to smash drop-C riffs for days.

  • Diecast Tuners
  • 3-ply black pickguard
