Frequently Asked Questions
The Sonitone is known for its natural acoustic representation; it’s not overly bright or processed, making it ideal for players seeking a true amplified tone rather than a heavily modified sound.
The silver maple neck has a comfortable 'C' shape that should be manageable for most hand sizes, although the 1.9 in nut width might feel a little snug for those with very large hands.
Clearton 10’s are a lighter gauge, making them relatively easy to replace compared to heavier 12-string sets, but 12-strings always require a bit more care and attention during restringing.
