Frequently Asked Questions
The varied string lengths improve intonation and reduce string tension inconsistencies, resulting in a more comfortable playing experience and a more even response across all strings.
They're active humbuckers, requiring power from the preamp, which delivers a hotter, more aggressive output and a distinct, modern tone with more sustain.
Neck-thrus are inherently strong, but repairs can be more complex and expensive if needed; proper humidity control is crucial to prevent warping.
