Frequently Asked Questions
The Evertune keeps the strings consistently under tension, resulting in a more responsive feel and eliminating the need for constant tuning adjustments, though some players may prefer a traditional tremolo.
The XJ profile is a slim, comfortable shape that tends to suit a wide range of hand sizes, though individual preference always plays a role.
The finish is a durable gloss, but like any nitrocellulose finish, it's susceptible to minor scratches and wear with heavy use, so a good quality polish is recommended.
