Frequently Asked Questions
The SSCII system provides true hum cancellation without the phase shifts or altered tone often associated with traditional splitting.
While set-necks are often perceived as having slightly better sustain, Suhr’s neck joint design minimizes any potential difference, offering a responsive feel and excellent transfer of energy.
Like all vintage-style pickguards, the parchment finish can be susceptible to scratches over time, but it contributes to the overall aesthetic appeal.
