Frequently Asked Questions
It’s a beautiful finish, but it's a thinner coat, so it’s more prone to minor scratches and fingerprints than some thicker finishes – regular care is recommended.
It’s a well-regarded tremolo system, but it does require a bit of understanding to properly adjust and maintain – a professional setup is recommended initially.
The 'Thin U' profile is generally slimmer and flatter than many of their other neck shapes, offering faster playing but potentially less comfort for some players.
