Frequently Asked Questions
The relicing is cosmetic; it shouldn't significantly impact playability. Some believe it can slightly alter resonance due to material removal, but it's subtle.
They're Fender's interpretation of '63 pickups – handwound to replicate the tonal characteristics, but not exact reproductions of vintage originals.
The '60s 'C' profile is generally a bit fuller and more rounded than some later Fender necks, providing a more substantial feel in the hand.
