Frequently Asked Questions

The active EQ adds a significant boost and shaping capabilities, allowing for a wider range of sounds, but it introduces a slight coloration. It's relatively straightforward to adjust, but experimentation is key to finding your sweet spot.
The longer scale increases string tension noticeably; it’s more demanding than a standard scale. While thicker strings are playable, be prepared for a more robust playing experience.
The Tesla pickups hold their own surprisingly well, offering a lot of punch and clarity, but they lack some of the nuance and refinement of truly premium pickups. They're a fantastic value, though.
