Frequently Asked Questions
The Opus-4 is noticeably warmer and less aggressive than a JB; it lacks the JB's high-output punch, but offers a more nuanced, vintage-inspired tone.
Yes, the 52mm string spacing is compatible with many Stratocasters, but you might need to adjust the pickup height for optimal results.
Like all Alnico magnets, it's slightly more susceptible to temperature changes than ceramic, but the effect is minimal and won't significantly alter the tone.
