OVERVIEW

Genesis takes you back to the origins of an extraordinary instrument.

From the ultra-thing, speedy Super Wizard neck to the Edge tremolo, it's capable of serious guitaristic acrobatics. Powerful, punchy and stable, this is a platform from which to proclaim your highest musical ambitions.
