Frequently Asked Questions
They offer a more refined and articulate tone with a wider dynamic range than many stock humbuckers, leaning towards a slightly more vintage character.
The Even C Slim neck shape is generally considered comfortable, but the 41.9 mm nut width might feel a bit narrower for those with very large hands.
The Wilkinson tremolo offers reliable performance and tuning stability, but doesn't have the extreme range or dive-bomb capabilities of a Floyd Rose.
