Frequently Asked Questions
The shorter rack angles prioritize a more focused, immediate sound with slightly less low-end resonance – a trade-off for the more compact setup.
The Permatones are a solid starting point, offering a controlled sound, but many players will want to experiment with aftermarket heads to tailor the tone further.
The standard lugs provide a more traditional, slightly 'rounder' tone and feel, offering a unique character compared to some of the newer lug designs.
