MLD Electric Spalted Maple Top w/ Gotoh Tremolo w/ hsc (Serial #001)

The Apogee is a love letter to the era of tube amps, fog machines, and the birth of the guitar hero. Inspired by the iconic metal sounds of the late 1970s.

The Design Philosophy:

The Apogee features a deep, symmetrical double-cutaway body that offers a nod to the soaring shredding solos of the late 1970s. The body edges are generously contoured and relieved for comfort, whether you’re playing a three-hour set or laying tracks in the studio

Vintage Performance, Modern Soul:

The Feel: A "standard thin" neck profile is reminiscent of early 80s fast-playing necks, hand-polished to a gloss finish that eliminates "finish drag" during high-speed transitions.
The Tone: Wired with a pair of vintage-voiced 1970's shredder humbuckers, the Apogee delivers the quintessential sound of late 70's metal. The saturated, "brown sound" growl will take you back.
