Frequently Asked Questions
The 'Modern C' profile is noticeably thinner and more comfortable than the vintage 'oval C' found on many older models, offering a faster feel.
The 2-point tremolo is relatively stable, but string changes and aggressive use require careful attention to prevent tuning issues – a heavier gauge string set is often recommended.
These standard single coils offer a more authentic, slightly 'rawer' vintage tone than the noiseless versions, but they will have a bit more inherent hum.
