Frequently Asked Questions
The Alnico 2 provides a warmer, more vintage-voiced humbucker tone with less output than the standard humbucker, making it more balanced with the single coils.
The Modern C profile is a bit slimmer and more consistently shaped than many older Fender necks, offering a more contemporary feel that many players find easier to play.
While the 2-point tremolo is a decent improvement, aggressive tremolo dives will still require occasional tuning adjustments - it's not a locking tremolo.
