Named for their Manitoba roots, designed to bring back that vintage tone of the early days with a bit of modern thinking. The use of A5 magnets for E,A,D strings and A2 in the G,B,E strings gives a smooth tonal balance across the whole guitar allowing the bass strings to sound clearer and more open while giving the treble strings a smoother high frequency response. The overall tone is very clear and dynamic giving players a lot of flexibility with their play style. The response to pick attack and use of the volume knob is dialled in beautifully. Many players suggest they have the old “fendery” tone.
A fantastic choice for Blues, Rock, and Country rock. The slightly exaggerated midrange adds some serious punch.
