Frequently Asked Questions
Bolt-on necks generally have a slightly quicker response and a more immediate attack, which can translate to a snappier feel, but might slightly reduce overall sustain compared to a set-neck design.
They're actively voiced, providing a modern, articulate sound with plenty of punch and clarity while retaining a pleasing warmth - not a purely vintage vibe.
Ebony is durable, but it can develop a slight sheen from playing. Consistent care with a dedicated ebony cleaner and occasional oiling will help preserve its appearance and feel.
