WHISKEY GOLD: Whiskey Gold finish showcases the natural beauty of the wood with a golden, aged-whiskey tone that glows under stage lights. This color pairs perfectly with the hand-tooled leather pickguard and headstock accents, giving the guitar a powerful, refined, and premium aesthetic.
JADE MIST: Jade Mist offers a smooth, misted jade tone that brings a refined yet vibrant personality to the instrument. The finish balances cool color character with subtle depth, making it visually striking onstage and in the studio without overpowering the natural beauty of the instrument’s lines.
BLACK EMBER: Black Ember combines deep black with th warm, ember-like undertone of the hand crafted pickguard, delivering a visual that is both aggressive and refined. Its subtle depth enhances the guitar’s contours and hardware, creating a striking, stage-ready look.
A no-compromise performance machine built for players who demand precision, power, and serious attitude. At its core is a German-made Floyd Rose Original tremolo system paired with a Floyd Rose locking nut (43mm), delivering rock-solid tuning stability even under extreme dive bombs and aggressive vibrato. The 25.5" scale length and fast 15" fret radius make this guitar feel instantly familiar yet effortlessly fast, while the hand-sanded Canadian Maple neck with a comfortable D-shape is designed for speed, control, and long sessions without fatigue. A rosewood fingerboard with 24 medium jumbo frets and pearl block inlays gives you smooth playability across the entire range, capped off by Sawtooth’s bold upside-down headstock with handcrafted leather finishes for unmistakable stage presence.
Tone-wise, the RipSaw ET is loaded for versatility and firepower. The Seymour Duncan Custom P90 in the neck delivers thick, high-output clarity with aggressive punch, while the legendary Seymour Duncan JB humbucker in the bridge brings iconic sustain, bite, and harmonic richness that excels across blues, rock, metal, punk, and beyond. Premium electronics—including CTS 500K volume and tone pots, a Switchcraft USA toggle switch, and Switchcraft USA input jack—ensure dependable performance and responsive control. Tuning du for precision and stability. ties are handled by Wilkinson Mini Tuners for rock solid tuning stability.
