Frequently Asked Questions
The piezo pickup delivers a usable amplified tone, though it's fairly basic—expect a bit of a 'quacky' quality; external preamps will improve it.
The 42mm nut width is a bit wider than a standard electric bass, but the mahogany neck has a fairly standard C shape that most players will find manageable.
The tuner is functional for basic tuning, but its accuracy isn't professional-grade; it's best used for quick checks rather than precise setups.
