Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.) All FGN guitars and basses feature the unique Circle Fretting System (C.F.S.). It was developed by FGN based on the concept of providing superior pitch accuracy and articulation compared to conventional guitars and basses. All frets are installed on the fingerboard in a slightly curved pattern, ensuring that every string intersects each fret at a perfect 90-degree angle. This minimizes the contact surface between the string and the fret, thereby equalizing the effective scale length for every individual string—a parameter that typically varies on instruments with conventional fretting. The C.F.S. represents a modern solution to traditional guitar and bass fretting; it delivers clearer articulation and tonal depth that adds dimension when playing chords, while ensuring that single notes cut through the mix with precision. Humbucker 1959 The "Häussel 1959" captures the legendary PAF sound—a tone that remains highly coveted to this day. Following an extensive development phase involving numerous comparisons and rigorous testing, we selected this specific variant. Crafted using authentic vintage-spec wire, precisely dimensioned and charged magnets, and an optimally calibrated coil winding, this pickup captivates listeners with its silky-smooth tone. It offers a woody warmth—cleanly separating the individual strings within chords to create an airy, open sound—while retaining a distinct, slightly nasal character that avoids becoming overly dense or muddy. The pickup's delightfully sweet high frequencies transform every single note into a sonic delicacy, making every solo an absolute feast for the ears. Furthermore, the '59 model responds to every pick attack with a satisfying, expressive "smack." It responds with great vigor, effortlessly tipping into harmonic overtones and feedback at any moment. This is a pickup with immense potential for sonic exploration—and precisely *the* pickup when it comes to achieving that authentic vintage PAF sound.
