Frequently Asked Questions
Myrtlewood is generally warmer and more subdued than spruce, offering less initial projection but a richer, more complex harmonic palette.
The concave shape is designed for comfort, but it's best to try it out; some with larger hands might find it slightly restrictive, though most will appreciate the ease of play.
The Presys I is a solid performer, offering good feedback rejection at moderate volumes; for very loud stages, an external preamp might be beneficial.
