Frequently Asked Questions

The D-Tron has a more compressed and chime-like quality than many single-coils, with a unique character somewhere between a P90 and a mini-humbucker.
The Radiator tremolo is surprisingly well-engineered; it's relatively easy to set up and maintains tuning stability better than many vintage-style tremolos.
Yes, a heavier gauge string set, like .011s or .012s, will help compensate for the shorter scale and provide a more substantial feel and improved intonation.
