Frequently Asked Questions
The maple neck is thinner and has a more pronounced 'C' shape, offering a snappier feel compared to the often rounder, more vintage Fender profiles.
While the high-output humbuckers are aggressive, they're more suited to rock and hard rock; extreme metal genres might require aftermarket upgrades for ultimate clarity and tightness.
Amaranth is a durable wood, but like any fingerboard, it’s best to clean it regularly and avoid excessive string squeak to minimize wear over time.
