Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for high-gain playing and expressive tremolo work, the Synyster Gates Standard Plus combines a mahogany body, quilted maple top, and black-pinstripes finish. Its three-piece mahogany neck has carbon fiber reinforcement and an ultra-thin C profile, paired with a 16-inch-radius ebony fingerboard and 24 jumbo frets. Synyster Gates Signature humbuckers deliver the guitar's tight-low, cutting-mid, high-output voice, while the Floyd Rose locking tremolo, locking nut, and Grover tuners support aggressive vibrato use. A push/pull tone control adds coil-split settings.
