Frequently Asked Questions

It’s voiced for a more vintage, less aggressive tone – think warmer and more articulate, ideal for jazz and blues, but lacking the high-output punch of modern humbuckers.
It’s a comfortable, classic 'C' profile – not too thin or flat, offering a good balance between playability and sustain.
It can be prone to feedback, so careful gain staging and potentially some room treatment will be necessary for clean recordings, but it captures a beautiful, natural acoustic tone.
