It features a mahogany body with a figured maple top that gives you sustain and warm tones.

The fingerboard geometry is based on a conical shape rather than cylindrical. The significance is tangible and substantial – a 10”-14” compound radius fingerboard allows for maximum playability with no chance of your strings fretting out when bending. The compound radius is time-consuming and laborious to get exactly right, yet worth-it – and featured on every Friedman Metro D.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuners and Bridge–\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e The Metro D is loaded with a Tone Pros Tune-O-Matic style Bridge and Stop Tail Piece that is paired with locking tuners.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCustom Friedman Pickups –\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e The Metro D is loaded with a Classic Humbucker in the neck position that is combined with the Classic+ Humbucker in the bridge.
