After years of prog metal experimentation and an intense dedication to guitars and gear, John Browne’s expertise has culminated with the Tao-8 electric guitar from Schecter. With a unique tonewood marriage, a pair of red-hot Schecter USA humbuckers, and a sleek satin neck, the Tao-8 replicates the very style and tone of Browne’s everyday axe. Undoubtedly, a wealth of sonic sounds is key to his success. Therefore, Schecter included a volume push-pull control knob and 3-way pickup switch to ensure top-notch audial possibilities. Care to take things to the stage like the man himself? No problem: the Tao-8’s bridge and tuning machines offer excellent intonation stability. And with a highly visible side marker design, you’ll be able to wield the power of prog metal’s finest in any location possible.
