Frequently Asked Questions

They’re voiced to be a bit more transparent and less overwound than many modern pickups, aiming for Scofield's characteristic clarity and responsiveness – think a vintage PAF but with a bit more bite.
The neck is a comfortable medium profile, not overly thick or thin, generally accommodating a range of hand sizes, though some with very large hands might prefer a slightly wider neck.
While it's capable, the semi-hollow construction can be prone to feedback with extreme gain and aggressive picking; it's best suited for more nuanced and controlled playing, though not completely unsuitable for rock.
