Frequently Asked Questions
The Lakland has a more vintage, slightly warmer tone; the Fender will generally be brighter and more aggressive, though both are excellent instruments.
Absolutely. The fretwork is impeccably smooth and consistent, resulting in effortless playing and minimal buzzing, even up the neck.
The maple neck has a comfortable 'C' shape; it’s not super chunky, but it does have a bit more substance than some of the super-thin profiles out there.
