Tap into furious sonics
“If you want to dive into an array of angry sonic dimensions, in my eyes the 57/66 is unbeatable in doing so.” — Sean Long (While She Sleeps)
Rip through the mix with EMG pickups
The EMG 57/66 pickup combo is well loved here at Sweetwater. You get a 57 in the neck for unmistakable PAF-style tones. Meanwhile, the 66 bridge humbucker delivers the bite you need with clarity to spare. Together with a cranked amp, these pickups turn the Sean Long’s San Dimas Style 1 signature guitar into a sonic flamethrower. It’s the perfect match for heavy riffing, sharp-as-glass leads, and everything in between.
Your fingers will fly over this maple neck
Sean Long’s fretboard pyrotechnics are undeniably impressive. His signature Charvel San Dimas Style 1 signature guitar has a specially carved neck to help him reach new heights every time he takes a solo. The comfortable profile provides you with a solid foundation. What’s more, there’s a compound-radius fingerboard that transitions from a 12-inch radius to a 16-inch radius as you work your way up the neck. Combined with the expertly dressed jumbo frets, the compound radius fingerboard gives you the right feel for every playing position.
Hardtail bridge for ultra-stable tuning
Heavy-hitting music can wreak havoc on your tuning stability — especially if you’re playing a guitar with a tremolo tailpiece. That’s one of the reasons why Sean specified that his signature guitar comes equipped with a Charvel compensated hardtail bridge. The string-through-body bridge design effectively transfers vibrations through the guitar, leading to improved sustain and resonance. Since there are no tremolo springs to deal with, you’ll be rewarded with unreal tuning stability that lasts longer than ever before.
