Frequently Asked Questions
Evertune essentially locks the strings at a specific tension, allowing for dive bombs without detuning, and the feel is quite solid – less 'floaty' than a vintage tremolo.
Yes, open pore finishes are more susceptible to minor cosmetic imperfections than a thick, glossy finish; a light coat of wax can help protect it.
The maple/walnut neck offers a comfortable, modern 'C' shape profile; it’s thinner than a vintage '50s neck but not as slim as some shred-style guitars.
