Frequently Asked Questions

The Torillo pickups have a more focused, less scooped midrange than many Fender designs and a tighter low-end than some Music Man pickups, offering a unique clarity and articulation.
The 2-band EQ is straightforward, but finding your ideal balance between active and passive modes and adjusting the high-mid boost will take some experimentation to truly unlock its potential.
Like all tonewoods, Sapele benefits from stable humidity—ideally between 45% and 55% to prevent cracking or warping. A case humidifier is a good investment.
