Roasted Jatoba Fingerboard for Fast, Smooth Playing

Shredding up and down the neck feels natural on the GHSV-200 thanks to its roasted jatoba fingerboard. The heating process stabilizes the wood, resulting in a harder fingerboard that doesn’t dry out. Jatoba also has a smooth, uniform grain that enhances playability. Combined with the thin U-shaped neck profile, reaching even the highest notes on the 22 extra jumbo frets becomes effortless. The GHSV-200’s roasted jatoba fingerboard gives you the speed you need for thrash metal soloing.

Contoured Mahogany Body for Comfort

The mahogany body on the GHSV-200 fits close to your body for maximum playing comfort. Its beveled cutaway and forearm contour enable easy access to even the highest frets. The lightweight chambered mahogany also enhances resonance for lively tone. Whether you’re playing fast thrash metal riffs or soloing for hours, the GHSV-200’s contoured mahogany body remains comfortable.
