Frequently Asked Questions
The Closet Classic finish is thinner, allowing more of the wood's natural resonance to come through. Expect a slightly more open and airy tone compared to a gloss finish.
While it retains some of the vintage feel, the 'Modern V' is subtly more defined than many older profiles. It offers a blend of comfort and familiar neck feel.
This vintage-style tremolo is more prone to tuning instability with aggressive use. It’s best suited for subtle vibrato and requires more frequent adjustments.
