Frequently asked questions

Which has better sustain?

The C-1 emphasizes high sustain with its string-thru hipshot hardtail bridge, while the V-1 focuses on controlled sustain for articulate clarity. The C-1 sustains longer; the V-1 prioritizes note definition.

Are the necks different?

Both have ultra-thin C profiles and 25.5" scale, but the C-1 is measurably slimmer (.748" at 1st fret) and includes an Ernie Ball compensated nut for enhanced open-string precision. The V-1 neck focuses on stability through carbon fiber reinforcement.

Which is better for extended studio sessions?

The C-1 is purpose-built for studio and live performance with its ergo-optimized neck profile and warm, defined tone that works across multiple recording styles.

Do they use the same pickups?

Both use Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers with ceramic bridge and alnico neck, so core pickup tone is identical—the body wood and bridge design create the tonal differences.
