Frequently Asked Questions
It’s a significant upgrade; the Darkglass provides a more aggressive, modern tone with enhanced low-end clarity and more extreme gain options.
The 20.8-23.6 mm profile is a modern 'C' shape – generally comfortable, but slightly thicker than some vintage profiles, which might suit larger hands well.
They’re designed as single coils, providing a more open and airy tone than traditional humbuckers, but with reduced noise thanks to Spector’s design and the active circuitry.
