Frequently Asked Questions
Splitting the humbucker provides a more transparent, single-coil-like tone, adding a brighter and more chimey quality ideal for cleaner styles.
While not direct equivalents, the Reflectone pickups hold their own, offering a surprisingly nuanced and balanced tone profile – a great value for the price point.
The neck has a comfortable 'C' shape with a moderate thickness; it's generally well-suited for a wide range of hand sizes, though players preferring a very thin or very thick neck should try it out first.
