Frequently Asked Questions
The coil-split on the bridge pickup delivers a brighter, more articulate tone, closer to a traditional single-coil Tele, but with a slightly more modern edge.
The Modern C profile is generally considered comfortable for a wide range of hand sizes, but players with very large hands might find it slightly narrower than some prefer.
The Hybrid II pickups have a more refined and slightly hotter output than vintage Telecasters, offering a more contemporary sound with increased clarity and sustain.
