Frequently Asked Questions

The EAS-VTC is designed for a more natural amplified tone; it's less 'bright' than some of their more aggressive systems, prioritizing acoustic fidelity.
The neck is a standard 'C' shape; while not overly thick, it's not exceptionally slim, offering a good balance of comfort and sustain.
While the OM-CM shares the OM body shape, the mahogany back/sides give it a slightly darker, more focused tone than the often brighter Martin; both are excellent, but offer different sonic characteristics.
