Frequently Asked Questions
Resinator is exceptionally durable and stable, resisting wear and tear, but the feel is noticeably different – more synthetic and less 'woody' than rosewood or ebony.
You can switch between active and passive modes, giving you tonal flexibility – the active preamp adds gain and EQ options, while passive offers a more classic, natural tone.
The weight is significant, but the neck profile and ergonomic design help; a good quality strap is highly recommended for comfortable long-term playing.
