Frequently Asked Questions
Pau Ferro is denser and slightly harder than Rosewood, resulting in a snappier feel and potentially longer fret life, although it lacks the oily feel of Rosewood.
While they’re not high-output, the Lipstick pickups have a surprising amount of punch and can handle rock and even some metal, though you might need to boost them with an amp.
Masonite provides a distinctive, somewhat hollow tone with a unique resonance; it's less resonant than a solid wood body, which contributes to the guitar's characteristic chime and slightly softer attack.
