This guitar is sooo much fun to play! My thinnest neck so far, and the tremolo is a total blast. The pickups are hand wound by Peter Malinoski (my Hero) and are… just so good. I mean, come on! They are actually ‘gold foil’ pickups in a humbucker case. The pickup selector switch is actually 4-way, not 3-way; Neck, Neck+Bridge (parallel) , Bridge, then it adds Neck+Bridge (series). This last is supercharged! So this instrument really has four distinct voices, and they can crunch, too! Did I mention how much I love these pickups?
