Frequently Asked Questions
The Maybach '60s Slim Taper is generally thinner and slightly flatter than a Fender '60s C, offering a faster feel.
They’re voiced to capture the essence of early '59 PAFs – thick, warm, and responsive, but not overly high-output like some modern pickups.
The aged finish is primarily cosmetic, but nitro finishes generally allow the wood to ‘breathe’ more, potentially contributing to a slightly more resonant tone over thick polyester finishes.
