Frequently Asked Questions
The tremolo is functional, but it's a budget-friendly unit; subtle vibrato is possible, but expect a bit more friction and potential tuning instability.
The neck has a fairly standard 'C' shape, and the 42.8 mm nut width provides enough space for most hand sizes, but it’s not exceptionally wide or thin.
While not as refined, the pickups deliver a comparable level of output and aggression to many higher-end Jackson humbuckers, though the tone will be a bit more raw and less nuanced.
