Frequently Asked Questions
They offer a similar vintage-inspired tone but with significantly reduced hum, making them ideal for recording or playing in noisy environments.
While functional, the block saddles offer a more controlled feel; heavy-duty dive bombs might require an aftermarket tremolo upgrade for maximum performance.
The 'Modern C' profile is thinner and more uniform than many vintage Fender necks, providing a faster, more contemporary feel that many players find easier to adapt to.
