Frequently Asked Questions
It's a functional synchronized tremolo, but expect a bit more 'flutter' and less sustain than a vintage-style Fender trem. It'll still get the job done for basic vibrato.
The neck finish is a satin lacquer; it's generally smooth, but some users may find it requires a bit of break-in to reach optimal slickness. A quick polish can help.
Absolutely. The standard ST pickup routing is universal, so swapping them out for higher-quality pickups is a straightforward upgrade path.
