Frequently Asked Questions
The Speed Neck is noticeably thinner and flatter than most Fender necks, offering a faster feel, especially for players used to modern profiles.
The Floyd Rose 1000 Series requires a bit of a learning curve, but the double-locking design helps maintain tuning stability compared to older tremolo systems.
While it excels at higher gain, the SSL-6 single-coil in the neck position provides surprisingly good clean tones, though the JB bridge pickup's character will always be present.
