In mid-2017 a new fretboard material, treated New Zealand pine, replaced rosewood.
It was produced simultaneously in China and in Indonesia; as such, multiple versions of this guitar exist for the different markets. For example, guitars sold in Asia since 2015 are equipped with the FAT-6 tremolo while those sold in other markets have the "standard tremolo". Starting in 2018 the GRX40 sold in the US market has a T106 tremolo.
