Frequently Asked Questions
The '60s C profile is noticeably thinner and more rounded than the '80s or modern 'D' shapes, offering a more vintage feel.
They do exhibit a bit of vintage hum, especially with high gain, but it's manageable and part of the character.
Rosewood is generally stable, but occasional cleaning and oiling will keep it hydrated and prevent excessive dryness or cracking.
