Frequently Asked Questions
The 'C' profile is comfortable, but generally a bit thinner and more modern than classic Fender Tele necks, offering easier access to higher frets.
It's a nicely figured veneer, adding visual appeal without significantly impacting the guitar's tonal characteristics – don't expect it to radically change the sound.
Ceramic pickups are inherently a bit noisier than alnico, so expect a bit of hum with high-gain amps and pedals, but it's manageable.
