Frequently Asked Questions
The 'U' shape is a comfortable standard, slightly fuller than some of the slimmer profiles found on their more modern offerings, offering a solid grip.
Filter'Trons can be a bit more prone to hum than modern noiseless pickups, but the output is balanced and manageable with good shielding.
The Walnut Stain finish is a nitrocellulose lacquer, which is susceptible to checking with temperature and humidity changes; proper care is recommended.
