Frequently Asked Questions
The coil split provides a brighter, more single-coil-like tone from the neck pickup, but it’s a fairly straightforward split, lacking the complexity of some more advanced coil-splitting systems.
Yes, the maple fingerboard is finished with a gloss coating, offering a smoother feel under the fingers, although some players might prefer a more open-pore feel.
The 'Modern C' profile is generally thinner and more comfortable than vintage Tele necks, and the slightly shorter scale length makes bending strings a bit easier.
