Frequently Asked Questions
Broad'Trons have a more aggressive midrange and a slightly more open high-end, lending themselves to a grittier, more vintage tone than many modern humbuckers.
The 12" fingerboard radius and 42.9mm nut width offer a good amount of space, but the neck profile is relatively slim, so it might feel a little snug for some players with very large hands.
The B60 Bigsby is functional, but requires careful setup and may require more frequent tuning adjustments, especially with aggressive tremolo use. It's not a Floyd Rose, that's for sure.
