Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Greg Koch’s Gristle-Tone set is a single-width Telecaster replacement set with two voices. Voice 1 is voiced for an open, airy response associated with Nashville and Bakersfield styles, chicken pickin’, and broad strums. Voice 2 takes a thicker, punchier direction with sustain. Leave a chosen voice active, or wire the set for switching between both options. The pickups recharge in the guitar, and the included lithium-ion battery pack is described as providing weeks of playing time.
