Frequently Asked Questions
The fretwork is generally well-executed, but a professional leveling and polishing might further enhance playability for some.
While rooted in vintage tones, the pickups' clarity and output handle funk and pop effectively with the right amp settings.
It’s a decent tremolo system, typical for this price point, but expect some tuning instability if you use it aggressively.
