Frequently Asked Questions

Josefina pickups are known for their tighter low-end, increased clarity in the midrange, and a more articulate overall tone compared to many standard Fender pickups.
Shell Pink was a rarely offered Fender color in the late 1950s and early 1960s, making this a nod to that limited-run history.
The '57 Soft 'V' profile is generally comfortable, but the 1.75” nut width might feel a bit snug for those with very large hands, though most players will find it manageable.
