Frequently Asked Questions

Evertune uses a unique tailpiece design with individually adjustable springs, allowing you to fine-tune string tension and maintain perfect tuning regardless of playing style or environmental changes; adjustments are simple and intuitive.
The Thin U profile is generally comfortable, but those with significantly larger hands might find it a little slim; it's best to try one in person if possible.
The EMG pickups give it a distinctly aggressive character compared to guitars with more traditional pickups; it’s a premium-priced instrument delivering a very focused high-gain sound.
