Frequently Asked Questions
The Pro Twin Six is tighter and more focused, with a slightly more aggressive upper-midrange – less of the classic 'muddiness' of the Filter'Trons.
The 'U' shape is a standard profile, but it's on the thicker side; smaller hands might find it a little bulky, though the 24.75” scale helps somewhat.
The B7GP is a well-regarded tremolo, and the Gotoh locking tuners help mitigate any tuning issues, but aggressive use will still require careful adjustments.
