Frequently Asked Questions
Masonite contributes to a more resonant, slightly hollow sound with a quicker decay – it's less focused than a solid body, but provides a unique character.
Like any wood fingerboard, Pau Ferro can dry out, so regular conditioning with a quality fretboard oil is recommended to prevent cracking.
The NOS+ pickups offer a noticeably clearer and more articulate tone with a slightly higher output, retaining the classic Danelectro 'growl' but with improved definition.
