Frequently Asked Questions
The Fortuna offers a higher output and a more defined midrange, providing more aggressive drive and sustain while retaining clarity.
Yes, it's a noticeable improvement. The transition from a wider radius at the nut to a flatter radius at the higher frets makes it easier to play complex chords and fast runs.
The Gotoh tremolo is well-regarded for its stability; with proper setup, it will track well and stay in tune. It's generally easier to maintain than some vintage-style tremolos.
