Frequently Asked Questions
The C1U's active design provides a more consistent and powerful signal, reducing the need for EQ adjustments and offering a cleaner, more defined amplified tone.
Mahogany is generally stable, but like all solid wood instruments, it benefits from moderate humidity; extreme dryness or dampness can impact its structural integrity.
The cutaway allows for relatively comfortable access to the 19th fret, making higher-register playing much easier than on a non-cutaway model.
