Successful Xotic gender reassignment

Post by Kiwiaxe »

Xotic XSC2 (HSS) converted to an XSC1 (SSS). Rather liking the black guard and white p’ups and controls. Sounds AWESOME

The whole thing is a sexy lot of wood, I definitely prefer it in its current SSS incarnation but I'm probably just boring.

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

So Mr Kiwiaxe, now that you've had a month or so with the Xotic SSS, what say you.... Xotic vs. Suhr vs. Tom Anderson???

Looking at the Xotic website, it seems they use a dummy inductive coil system like Suhr’s in their bass guitars, but nothing in their 6 strings???
