Combed20 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 HI there. Currently GASSIng for both of these. Has anyone played both? Love to hear what the differences were. Currently looking for a shop with both in stock to go and have a play about... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I had a Duff Sig (older model, not the new one with blocks etc), and have played a Nate Sig. The Duff, although it has a Jazz width neck, was a fair handful, I was surprised at the depth of the neck. The Nate although a thinner than regular Precision, just felt like a good worn in Precision. Sound-wise the Duff is more versatile due to the two pickups and TBX option, additionally the Nate has Quarter Pounder pickups which I`m not keen on. I wouldn`t say either was better as in terms of build quality, playability they were pretty evenly matched. If I had to pick one I`d probably go for the Duff as for one I already have enough regular Precisions, so the added tonal options make sense, plus it wouldn`t require a pickup change to get rid of the QPs.

Many thanks mate. Interesting on the neck front. Both sound quite a handful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lfalex v1.1 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 No experience of either, but the Duff must surely have more tonal options. If versatility is what you're after, I guess the Duff is the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
