Frequently Asked Questions

The push/pull pots on the volume and tone knobs switch between three pickup voices, offering a range of tonal options; it requires a little experimentation to master but provides substantial versatility.
The thin 'U' profile is generally considered comfortable, but those with very large hands might find it a bit slender; it's best to try one in person if possible.
Mahogany bodies are naturally heavier, and this one is no exception; while not excessively heavy, it's more substantial than lighter guitars, so consider that if portability is a top priority.
