It’s a serious contender for anyone wanting that classic 335 feel without the premium price tag.

Frequently Asked Questions
While it adds some flexibility, the single-coil tones are more of a characterful humbucker-split than true single-coil clarity.
The Slim Taper Rounded C is generally comfortable, but players with very large hands might find it a touch narrow; it's a classic profile, though.
The Rotomatics significantly improve tuning stability, making string changes and gigging much easier compared to standard tuners.
