Frequently Asked Questions

They are meticulously crafted to match the specifications and tonal characteristics of original 1957 Strat pickups, using vintage-correct materials and winding techniques.
The Pure Vintage tremolo, when properly set up, offers excellent stability, though it's more sensitive to heavy use than modern, block-style tremolos.
