Frequently Asked Questions

It's functional and gets the job done for basic gigs, but don't expect the nuanced EQ or dynamic range of a premium system.
The neck is standard 'C' shape, a little on the thicker side, which may be a stretch for very small hands, but generally manageable.
Pau Ferro is quite durable, but occasional conditioning with a quality fretboard oil will keep it playing smoothly and prevent cracking.
