Frequently Asked Questions
The Anthem system’s under-saddle transducer and microphone blend provides a more nuanced and natural fingerstyle tone, capturing more of the guitar’s resonance and avoiding the harshness often associated with piezo pickups.
The neck has a comfortable, slightly rounded profile – not overly thick or thin – that generally suits a wide range of hand sizes, but a hand-check is always recommended.
It offers a richer, more complex tone than many competitors, due to the solid wood construction and the quality of the rosewood; it’s more responsive and articulate.
