Hope FT Features:

Carved Spanish Cedar Body
Spanish cedar is nice and light with a clear, resonant, and balanced tone. It has been likened to the mahogany from old growth trees used in electric guitars back in the 50s when it was still widely available.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Hades Roasted Maple Neck with Wenge Fretboard
Our new 2+2 headstock design features our O* logo inlaid in mother of pearl acrylic. The super dark roasted maple has been finished with a oil/poly/beeswax blend that feels amazing. The wenge fretboard adds a nice high end sparkle to your tone, similar to ebony.

TV Jones Passive Pickup and Electronics
The pickup is a TV Jones Thunder'Mag in a traditional Filter'Tron format. The electronics feature a standard volume and tone, along with a 6-way tone selector. The first position is bypassed, so you can use your standard tone control. Positions 2-6 are bass cut, treble cut, mid scoop, warm tone, and deep bass/sub.

Leo Quan Badass Bridge and Tuners
The Badass Bass III bridge has long been a favorite looking to improve sustain. The OGT Mini tuners help add to that with their solid brass posts.

DR Legend Flatwound Strings
DR Strings are a favorite among many pro musicians. These flats give you that vintage, old school tone, and the best part is you probably won’t ever have to change them.

Gator 4G Gig Bag
A pro level gig bag with 20mm of padding to protect your investment.

Light Weight
TBD, but it's gonna be light.
