Frequently Asked Questions
The split coil offers a surprisingly clear and articulate tone, more akin to a single-coil than a typical humbucker, adding a lot of versatility.
The vintage tremolo is functional but can require more frequent tuning adjustments than modern, floating tremolos – a good setup is key.
The neck profile is a comfortable, slightly flatter 'C' shape, offering a familiar feel for players used to more modern neck designs.
