Frequently Asked Questions
The finish is intentionally thin and fragile to replicate vintage wear; it's beautiful but requires careful handling to avoid further damage.
These are unpotted, which results in a more open, dynamic sound with increased breathiness and a slightly less compressed feel compared to potted pickups.
The shorter scale provides slightly easier bending and a rounder feel, but might require a slightly heavier gauge string to maintain proper intonation and tension.
