Frequently Asked Questions

Häussel pickups offer a more defined and controlled low-end, with less muddiness and a slightly more aggressive edge than many standard split coils.
Bolt-on construction is often favored for its responsiveness and ease of repair, and Vincent’s execution is top-notch, offering excellent sustain and a lively feel.
The Fangorn finish is a durable lacquer, but like any glossy finish, it's susceptible to scratches and swirl marks with heavy use; a good quality polish will keep it looking its best.
