Schecter John Browne TAO-8, Azure Blue Signed by John Browne Overview
Prog-metal master and Monuments man John Browne has a breadth of musical ground to cover every time he picks up a guitar. The new John Browne Signature Tao models provide a versatile arsenal of instruments carefully crafted to meet John’s needs.
The flamed maple top veneer with a satin translucent purple finish provides a beautiful contrast to the beastly capabilities of these guitars. The contoured body meets an Ultra Thin-U shaped Wenge/Padauk neck with Schecter’s Ultra Access carve providing effortless reach all the way up the minimal, unadorned fretboard.
Custom-voiced, USA-made Chaosbreaker and Colossus pickups provide all the tonal flexibility required to deliver everything from powerful riffs to delicate interludes, while the Hipshot bridge and Grip-Lock Tuners provide all the stability needed for when things get heavy.
