The controls include a 3-position flat switching and a 2-in-1 volume/tone knob, offering versatile sound options. The HS pickup configuration is further enhanced by the Active/Passive switch when plugged in with an earphone through 3.5mm jack output.

​What makes the HUSH-X unique is the Donner patented Headless Tuning System and the Full Block 6-Saddle Fixed Bridge, which offers a fast and innovative way to change and tune the strings, as well as a balanced and comfortable playing experience.

Being beginner friendly as always, the HUSH-X Headless Electric Guitar comes with a gigbag, earphones, strap, tuner, 3 Allen wrenches, picks, and 9v battery, making it a complete and convenient package for musicians on the go.
