Deeper Cut Horn
KIKO’s unique scoop cutaway at the back of the body allows even easier access to high frets from any angles.

DiMarzio® KIKO original Pickups
Kiko plays a wide range of music, from metal to jazz fusion, and the pickups were designed to reflect this range of sound. The neck and bridge pickups both humbuckers have medium output and a balanced sound in terms of frequency response. The single-coil middle pickup is more powerful and warmer-sounding than a typical vintage single-coil, in order to balance well with the neck and bridge pickups.

Edge-Zero II Tremolo
Lower profile designed tremolo for playing comfort, and stud lock function for stable tuning.

Tilt-in Jack
Tilt-positioned output jack on KIKO10P holds guitar cables securely.

Coil-tap
Coil-tap switch on volume control (Neck and Bridge pus)
