Frequently Asked Questions

The Custom 5 is generally hotter and thicker; this Skolnick pickup offers more clarity and a more defined midrange, making it a bit more versatile for different styles.
Absolutely. The Alnico V magnet complements rosewood's warmth, providing a balanced and articulate tone without becoming muddy.
The nickel cover does subtly dampen the high frequencies compared to a bare Alnico V, resulting in a slightly warmer, more vintage-inspired tone.
