Frequently Asked Questions

The Modern C profile is noticeably thinner and has a more consistent shape than the often-irregular vintage necks, offering a more contemporary feel.
They're not high-output, but the Alnico 5 magnets provide enough punch for classic rock and blues-based hard rock – it won’t be metal territory, though.
It's a mid-tone rosewood, not as dark as some you see, which generally means a slightly faster feel and a bit more visual clarity of the fret markers.
