Frequently Asked Questions
It's a simpler 2-band EQ, offering a good balance of tone shaping without excessive complexity; it’s more akin to a classic active EQ than modern, multi-band options.
It’s straightforward – a simple push switches between humbucker and single-coil modes for each pickup, but practice is recommended for quick adjustments on stage.
It's a modern 'C' profile, slightly thinner and more consistently shaped than many vintage Fender necks, offering a faster, more comfortable feel for contemporary playing styles.
