Sleek Double-Cutaway Body Produces Balanced Tone
The MD200's double-cutaway basswood body not only gives it a slick, contemporary look, but also provides balanced tone with clear lows, articulate mids and singing highs. Compared to other tonewoods like alder or ash, basswood has a slightly compressed response that keeps your tone focused when playing with high gain. The deep cutaways allow effortless access to the highest frets for guitar gymnastics. The MD200's contoured body edges maximize playing comfort whether you're seated or standing. The sleek gloss finish gives it eye-catching looks under stage lighting.
Ceramic Rail Humbuckers Reduce Noise
This ax is armed with a set of Mitchell's own ceramic humbuckers with rail-style magnets. The rail magnets provide a stronger, more consistent magnetic pull compared to traditional pole pieces, resulting in better string-to-string balance. This gives the MD200 a bold, focused tone. The rail magnets also significantly reduce hum and cut down on microphonic squealing from stage volume. You can crank your amp without having to worry about noise or feedback compromising your tone. The coil-split function allows you to tap the rail humbuckers for single-coil tones when desired.
Deep Cutaway Enables Effortless Upper Fret Access
The MD200's deep double cutaway design allows complete access to every fret up and down the neck. Hit sky-high solos and fingerboard-spanning chords with ease. The smooth satin finish on the back of the MD200's maple neck lets your hand glide easily up and down the fingerboard. The 25.5" scale length provides great string tension for solid tuning stability even when using lighter gage strings. Combined with the MD200's flat 13.75" fingerboard radius, you get a fast, slick playing feel.
String-Through Body Increases Sustain
For maximum resonance and sustain, the MD200 utilizes string-through body design. The strings pass through the body and are anchored by the back plate, allowing the entire body to resonate and sustain. This results in singing sustain and outstanding note articulation. Combined with the TOM-style bridge, you get rock-solid intonation up and down the neck. The MD200 serves up organic, musical sustain perfect for long, singing lead lines.
