Frequently Asked Questions

The P90 offers a distinct, raw tone – it's less refined than many modern pickups, with more character and a slightly 'honky' quality.
It’s a functional vintage-style tremolo; it won’t offer the wide vibrato of a Floyd Rose, but it’s stable enough for subtle pitch bending and adds a little flair.
The neck is a comfortable, medium profile, generally appealing to a wide range of players; it's neither too thin nor too thick, making it suitable for both lead and rhythm work.
