Frequently Asked Questions

It's hotter than a traditional single-coil, offering more output and a slightly more aggressive tone, but retains a decent amount of clarity, unlike some overly muddy ceramic pickups.
The caramelisation process creates a slightly smoother, glassier feel, which some players find enhances playability and reduces friction, though the effect is subtle.
A double action truss rod allows for both forward and backward bow adjustments, giving you more flexibility in setting up the neck relief and compensating for string tension changes.
