Frequently Asked Questions
The ebony finish doesn't inherently change the tone, but the thicker coating might slightly dampen high-end frequencies compared to a more open sunburst finish.
It's a noticeably rounder profile than many modern guitars – more substantial in the hand, but still comfortable, avoiding a sharp 'V' shape.
The adjustable belly up bridge allows for fine-tuning of the action, letting you dial in your ideal string height and improve overall playability and comfort.
