CONS

- • High-gloss finish might be a fingerprint magnet and could feel less 'organic' to some.
- • Flamed maple top, while beautiful, can be a more fragile wood than Koa or mahogany.

Frequently Asked Questions
Active pickups draw power, so expect to replace the battery (usually a 9V) every 6-12 months with regular use.
The Navigator typically features a comfortable 'C' shape neck profile, which should be accommodating for most hand sizes, but it's slightly narrower than some vintage designs.
Rosewood can be sensitive to humidity changes; it's a good idea to use a humidifier if you live in a dry area to prevent cracking and maintain optimal playability.
