Frequently Asked Questions
The 'Thin U' profile is thinner than many ESP necks, offering a more modern feel, but still retaining some classic warmth and comfort.
Like any highly finished instrument, it requires care; the finish is durable, but careful handling and proper storage are recommended to prevent cosmetic damage.
The frets are generally left as X-Jumbo, not beveled or rolled, which some players may find slightly less comfortable, but contributes to the instrument's vintage aesthetic.
