Frequently Asked Questions
The bolt-on neck feels snappier and more responsive than a Fender’s set-neck, offering a quicker attack and slightly brighter tone.
Purpleheart is a dense hardwood, but like any fingerboard, it can show wear over time with heavy use and lack of proper care; regular oiling is recommended.
The split-coil design provides a surprisingly clear and defined tone, avoiding the typical mud associated with some humbuckers – it’s punchy and articulate.
