Frequently Asked Questions
Unlike battery-powered systems, SSCII is entirely passive, offering a completely transparent solution to mains hum without affecting the guitar's natural tone or adding complexity.
It's a meticulously crafted vintage-style '60s C profile, offering a comfortable, rounded feel but with slightly more modern dimensions for improved playability.
The compound radius (9in - 12in) provides a comfortable feel for chords and facilitates easier bending higher up the neck, a nice blend of vintage and modern ergonomics.
