FGN Guitars with Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.) – Precision and Unmatched Clarity
Discover the groundbreaking Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.) in all FGN guitars and basses. This innovative design enhances pitch accuracy and tonal clarity. By slightly curving the frets on the fingerboard, strings intersect at a 90-degree angle, reducing string-to-fret contact. This unique approach equalizes scale length for each string, resulting in precise articulation, fuller chord resonance, and single notes that cut effortlessly through any mix.
Elevate Your Playing Experience
This high-performance electric guitar is built for modern players who demand precision, stability, and powerful tone. Featuring an ash body with a bolt-on maple U-shape neck and rosewood fingerboard, it delivers a tight, articulate response with excellent sustain. The extended 26.14-inch (664mm) scale length is optimized for down-tuned playing, making it ideal for heavy gauge strings and Drop C tuning.
Equipped with 24 jumbo frets and FGN’s innovative Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.), the guitar provides improved pitch accuracy, clearer articulation, and enhanced chord definition. A compound radius fingerboard ensures comfortable chording near the nut and effortless string bending in higher registers, while J-Standard fret edge treatment adds smooth, refined playability.

Dual FISHMAN® Fluence Modern humbuckers with 3-voice switching, push-pull controls, and a 3-way toggle deliver versatile, noise-free tones suited for both rhythm and lead work. Supplied with a premium soft case, this guitar is built for stage, studio, and aggressive modern styles.
