Frequently Asked Questions

The Super-J is generally punchier and a bit more aggressive, lacking the slight scooped mids of a vintage Fender pickup but retaining a similar clarity and articulation.
While a set-neck often gets more praise for sustain, the V6-4’s construction is well-executed and delivers a surprising amount of resonance and sustain for a bolt-on design.
The sandblasted finish provides a unique texture, but it’s inherently more porous than a gloss finish, so it will show minor scratches and wear more readily, which some players appreciate for a vintage look.
