Steinberger is one of the most innovative hi-end guitar/bass makers known for headless designs, integrated bridge/tuning/whammy mechanisms and usage of composite materials particularly for necks and fingerboards for their stability and totally even response with no dead spots.
The GR4 guitar was Steinberger's attempt to create an instrument with the most useful innovative features at a reasonable price (first Steinberger designs were extremely costly). Still US made the result was a bolt-on composite neck coupled with a small wood body and headless design with a re-designed bridge/tuning/whammy piece and a guitar that would take normal guitar strings and not the more expensive and harder to get double ball-ends for previous models. It should not be confused with later Steinbergers of much more conventional design.
This particular guitar is very, very light, perfectly balanced, playability is excellent and sounds are consistent, clear, and brilliant being the perfect source sound for your own sound coloring.
Specs:
Built late 80ies, MIA, excellent condition
Neck: Bolt-on composite neck / fingerboard, 24 frets, accept normal strings, black finish
Body: Light, very resonant wood (not sure which, guessing mahogany), black finish
Pick-ups: 2 x Seymor Duncan Rails + 1 Seymor Duncan Humbucker
Electronics: Steinberger passive
Bridge: Steinberger R-TREM integrated bridge/tuning/whammy piece, black finish
Case: generic gig-bag
