Frequently Asked Questions
The 'rounded C' profile is generally a bit more substantial than a truly slim '50s neck, offering a comfortable, familiar feel for many players.
The VOS finish is designed to mimic years of wear, so it’s noticeably thinner than a gloss finish, allowing the wood to breathe and resonate more freely.
The wraparound bridge typically contributes to a slightly more focused and direct sustain, often perceived as a bit 'snappier' than a traditional stopbar.
