Frequently Asked Questions
The basswood construction results in a softer, less bright tone compared to traditional Koa, which tends to be more resonant and articulate.
It's possible, especially on the lower frets, but generally manageable with a quick setup; budget for a professional setup if you're a stickler for perfection.
While visually distinctive, the open-gear tuners aren't the most precise, so expect to do slightly more frequent tuning adjustments than with higher-end options.
