Frequently Asked Questions

Roasted maple is kiln-dried, reducing moisture-related warping and improving stability. It also imparts a smoother, almost silky feel under the fingers compared to standard maple.
The Tesla VR-2 pickups are surprisingly good; they offer a warm, balanced tone with a decent amount of output – a significant step up from many budget pickups and a real highlight of this guitar.
It’s a semi-hollow, so it’s naturally a bit heavier than a solid-body, but it’s not excessively so – around 9.9 lbs. You'll notice it after a long gig, but most players should find it manageable.
