Frequently Asked Questions
The LT pickups are voiced to be slightly more transparent and balanced, offering a more refined and less overwound tone than some of the original McCarty models.
The 'Pattern' neck is intended to be a comfortable and familiar profile, but subtle variations exist between individual instruments – it's best to try one in person.
The 10” radius offers a slightly more rounded feel, making bends easier and contributing to a vintage-inspired playing experience, though some modern players prefer flatter profiles.
