Frequently Asked Questions
The Presys I delivers a clean, natural amplified tone suitable for smaller gigs. It's a simple, reliable system, though it lacks advanced EQ controls.
The concave shape is designed to improve comfort, but it takes a little getting used to. Some players find it enhances the connection, while others might prefer a more traditional shape.
12-string tension is significantly higher, requiring more finger strength and potentially adjusting your technique. Lighter gauge strings are recommended for easier playability.
