Frequently Asked Questions
The Modern C is a bit slimmer and more consistently shaped than many vintage Tele necks, offering a more modern playing feel.
Yes, the pickup routing is standard Telecaster, so you can easily drop in aftermarket pickups to customize the sound.
The amaranth fretboard has a decent factory finish, but a light polish can really elevate the feel and playability.
