Frequently Asked Questions

The AT-1 is hotter and more focused than a Super Distortion, with a tighter low-end and more aggressive high-end response, sacrificing some of the Super Distortion’s broader tonal palette.
It's best paired with a lower-output neck pickup to avoid an overly unbalanced sound. A more vintage-voiced neck humbucker would be a better complement than another high-output pickup.
The white color indicates a ceramic magnet; the color itself doesn’t directly affect the tone, but the ceramic material contributes to the pickup's high output and focused sound.
