Frequently Asked Questions

They offer a noticeably thicker, warmer tone with more midrange presence and slightly higher output, lending themselves well to classic rock and blues tones.
The vintage-style tremolo is generally well-behaved, but it's still a floating trem, so expect some tuning stability adjustments, especially with aggressive use.
It’s a thinner nitrocellulose lacquer finish, which allows the wood to breathe and age naturally, contributing to the instrument's tone and feel.
