Frequently Asked Questions
The Stealth Pro is known for its relatively quiet operation and natural sustain enhancement; it’s not a full-blown infinite sustain device, but a subtle and musical boost.
It's a satin finish, providing a smooth and fast playing experience without the stickiness of a high-gloss finish.
It's a modern Floyd, so setup is reasonably straightforward, but it does require some familiarity with tremolo adjustments and potentially professional help if you're not comfortable.
