Balaguer Thicket FYS Rustic Barn Burst

Dan O'Connor / Four Year Strong Signature Balaguer

The Balaguer Thicket FYS, finished in Rustic Barn Burst, is Four Year Strong's Dan O'Connor's signature Balaguer model. Dan and Balaguer collabed on this guitar, to design the perfect guitar for touring and studio use, combining purposefully spartan electronics with premium specs. A Mahogany body, combined with a single coil-splitting Balaguer Feral humbucker, makes for an incredibly versatile tonal palette. If the name didn't give it away, this scatterwound & wax-potted Alnico V humbucker is perfect for the modern metal guitarist. Weighing in it at 12.5k Ohms, this spicy pickup excels at searing licks and thick, beefy riffs with plenty of texture and depth. With coil-splitting engaged, this Thicket pulls off sparkly and articulate crystalline clean tones with ease.

A comfortable Roasted Maple neck with 16" radius Ebony fingerboard and 22 medium jumbo stainless steel frets are perfect for endlessly comfortable playability, while premium features like a graphite nut, Balaguer locking tuners and a T-style bridge ensure solid tuning stability.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Balaguer Thicket FYS, finished in Rustic Barn Burst, is a great option for not just Four Year Strong fans, but anyone who wants a classy T-style with modern upgraded appointments, and a super versatile pickup.
