HEX Guitars is a Korea-based brand specializing in products in the entry- to mid-range price range.
They have their own factory in Indonesia where they manufacture their products themselves, which sets them apart from typical OEM brands.
They don't leave it to other companies' factories; instead, their boss himself is on-site, which is why they're able to produce guitars of a quality unimaginable given the price.
This is their newly launched headless-style series.
The N500P is a model equipped with a flexible custom tremolo bridge.
The sophisticated body shape is made of mahogany.
Two rubber feet are attached to the end of the body, allowing you to prop the guitar up stably even without a guitar stand.
The neck is made of roasted maple.
Roasted wood, also known as thermo wood, is a new material popularized by Japan's Sago new material guitars.
It was originally developed using Finnish technology as wood for sauna construction.
High-temperature treatment evaporates the moisture and oils within the wood, providing excellent stability even in hot and humid conditions.
The sound is characterized by a more refined, rich tone.
The fingerboard is made of roasted maple and has a 12-16 inch compound radius.
The compound radius is rounded in the lower positions and flatter in the higher positions.
Generally, a rounded fingerboard radius provides good playability, but is prone to choking in the higher positions.
The compound radius solves this problem.
This technology is used by high-end brands such as Suhr Guitars and Tom Anderson.
The frets are made of stainless steel.
Stainless steel is characterized by its anti-tarnish nature and high hardness.
Stainless steel frets maintain their shine and are extremely resistant to wear, making them popular with high-end guitar brands in recent years.
The neck shape is a slim, unassuming C-shape.
The pickups are original humbucking types.
They use their own original pickups in many of their models.
This is not to cut costs, but because they are confident in the quality of the pickups they design themselves.
Their staff, who know music and play it on a daily basis, have thoroughly researched the magnets, wire, bobbins, and many other elements into their designs.
Controls include a pickup selector, volume, and tone (push-pull switch to turn the coil tap on/off).
The balance is excellent in the hand, and even those who normally play Fenders or Gibsons will find the HEX N easy to play.
No special strings for headless guitars are required; the same strings as for regular guitars (Stratocasters and Les Pauls) can be used.
The sound is clear, as you'd expect from a headless guitar, but without losing any musical overtones or rich bass.
The basic quality around the neck is extremely high, making it highly playable, and it's hard to argue that it's inferior to instruments costing around 200,000 yen.
Overall, it's a fantastic product with high quality looks, playability, and sound.
It's perfect for anyone who wants to try out a headless guitar, and it's certainly a good first guitar.
All HEX Guitars products sold by GIB are inspected, modified, and adjusted by GIB after being imported into Japan.
We offer undeniable quality, so please give them a try.
