Frequently Asked Questions
They generally are, but you might need to adjust pickup height for optimal output and tone due to the higher output of the SH-4.
Yes, coil-splitting will tame the SH-4's output, offering a more vintage-like single-coil tone, though it won't be as quiet as a true single-coil.
