Brent Hinds, the lead guitarist for Mastodon, came back for more First Act after playing his first custom axe. This time, Hinds asked for a 12-string Lola Doublecut with maple top, mahogany back, and ebony fingerboard. First Act Duomag pickups produce a hotter version of our standard pickups’ tone, and the classic Tune-O-Matic bridge balances the individual hum of each string – maintaining a balance, on even the most intense moments, between genius and chaos. All in all, this instrument allows Hinds’ technical expertise soar to new levels of complexity and innovation.
