Frequently Asked Questions
The C profile is similar, but generally a bit more substantial – it’s comfortable, but not quite as thin or modern feeling.
Yes, the string-thru holes are finished, but expect slightly rougher edges compared to more expensive instruments – nothing major, though.
While primarily designed for cleaner tones, they can handle moderate gain, but become noisy; it’s better suited to styles needing that classic Tele clarity.
