Frequently Asked Questions

It’s a very capable pickup, but lacks the nuance and complexity of more premium options – a good compromise for the price.
The Modern ‘C’ profile is generally comfortable, but it’s not as full as a vintage ‘D’ shape; it’s a good middle ground.
It’s serviceable, but not a locking tremolo; expect slight tuning adjustments after more aggressive tremolo use.
