Frequently Asked Questions
The 'Cin' profile is noticeably thinner and flatter than many Gibson necks, offering a more modern feel that some players find faster and more comfortable.
It's a gloss finish, which provides a smooth, fast feel, but some players might prefer to have it lightly sanded and re-finished for a more vintage, lower-friction experience.
The 498T is hotter and has a more aggressive high-end response than the Burstbuckers, delivering a more modern, high-output rock tone.
