Frequently asked questions
Is there any tonal difference between the White and Zebra finishes?
No. Both use identical Alnico 5 magnets, 14.8kΩ DC resistance, nickel silver bottom plates, and vacuum wax potting. The finish color is purely cosmetic and does not affect tone.
Which finish is better for metal or drop-tuning applications?
Both are equally suitable. They share the same controlled mid-output, note separation, and articulate character that works well for metal, hard rock, and drop tunings.
Will either finish show wear or discoloration over time?
Both are hand-assembled with durable construction. The white finish may show cosmetic yellowing from heat or age, while zebra striping remains consistent. Functionally, neither is affected by normal playing.
Do these work with standard guitars or only tremolo systems?
Both feature Trembucker spacing, which accommodates guitars with wider string spacing and tremolo bridge systems. They work as bridge pickups in any properly routed guitar.
