Sound
The ceramic humbucker in the bridge position delivers a full, tight, and punchy sound, with sustain supported by the fixed bridge. The poplar body provides tonal balance while the maple fingerboard enhances attack and clarity. The 25.5" / 648 mm scale length offers slightly firmer tension for precise lows and defined highs.
