Costum-s or basic model

[Alexdougan27]

So recently I’ve been saving for his custom-s but I want to know is it that much better then just to the basic signature model?

Well, the custom-s has the sustainiac pickup in the neck position instead of a similar humbucker that’s in the bridge position. I’d ask yourself “how often will I REALLY use the sustainiac?” because you may end up spending $600 or $800, or whatever difference, too much to just use it for the few songs that use it. If you don’t use Sustainiac in your own playing and improvising, I wouldn’t spend the extra. However, it’s very cool to just have it so I’d really dive into yourself about it first.

Sorry I’m very late too seeing this but……. I bought the custom-s I told myself that I’ve got the money and I’ve always wanted it so just don’t think and buy it and I did and I love it still playing with the sustaniac but I’ll get the hang of it
