Frequently Asked Questions
It's a B-style trem, more akin to a 50s Fender than a modern Floyd Rose; expect less extreme dive-bombing but a smooth, classic vibrato effect.
The high-gloss finish is beautiful but can be susceptible to scratches; a quality case and careful handling are recommended to preserve its appearance.
The neck profile is likely a comfortable, medium-thin C shape – not as chunky as a vintage D shape, offering a modern feel for easier playing.
