Frequently Asked Questions
The 'C' shape is a very good approximation, offering similar comfort and playability, though a true vintage neck might have slightly more variation.
Absolutely. The standard pickup routing is Fender-compatible, allowing for straightforward swaps to aftermarket pickups.
The gloss finish is decent, but it's not as thick as a high-end instrument's – expect some minor checking and wear with regular playing.
