Frequently Asked Questions
The 'D' profile is generally slightly flatter and thinner than a classic Fender P-bass neck, offering a more modern feel and potentially faster playing for some.
Yes, the pickups are standard single-coil and split-coil sizes, so swapping them out for other readily available options is quite straightforward.
The solid hardware, including the brass saddles and double-action truss rod, contributes to surprisingly good tuning stability, even with vigorous playing, though regular checks are still recommended.
