Frequently Asked Questions

It's generally a bit thinner and more 'modern' feeling, offering a quicker, easier playing experience, especially for players used to slimmer necks.
The vintage-style tremolo is functional but basic; expect to make minor adjustments more frequently than with higher-end trem systems.
A clean amp with a bit of grit, or a classic rock-style amp, will really let the Alnico V humbucker shine and provide a versatile range of tones.
