Frequently Asked Questions

The Transition Bridge has a tighter, more focused sound than the Super Distortion, which is known for its broader, more scooped frequencies. It's also significantly lower in output, making it more manageable overall.
It's unlikely to sound muddy, actually; the ceramic magnet and high output help cut through. However, ensure your amp settings and EQ are dialed in to avoid any harshness.
It's a bright, clean white – a stark contrast to cream or vintage-style colors. It’ll really pop against darker guitar finishes.
