Frequently Asked Questions
Broad'Trons offer a more compressed and focused tone than P90s, with a slightly tighter low end and less inherent hum – still retaining a vintage vibe.
The Thin 'U' profile is generally comfortable, but some players with very large hands might find it slightly narrow, though the 1.6875 in nut width provides adequate room.
Yes, the Treble Bleed circuit helps retain high-end frequencies when lowering the volume, preventing the guitar from becoming muddy at lower settings.
