Frequently Asked Questions
The 2-point tremolo is decent for its class, but expect some minor tuning fluctuations with heavy use, unlike more expensive, fine-tunable systems.
The neck profile is a fairly standard 'C' shape, which is generally comfortable, but it's a bit on the thinner side, so those with very large hands might find it slightly cramped.
While designed for heavier tones, the pickups can be tamed with amp adjustments to handle blues or classic rock, though they’ll always have a bit of a modern edge.
