Frequently Asked Questions

The hollowbody adds a resonance and warmth, softening the attack and providing more sustain. It's closer to a 'vintage' bass feel, lacking the sharper, more defined attack of a solid-body.
While the humbuckers are powerful, the vintage voicing leans towards classic rock and blues. You *can* make it work for other genres, but it won't be its strongest suit.
The fretboard likely has a moderate radius, somewhere between a fully flat and a heavily rounded profile – probably around 9.5 in. This offers a balance between comfort and string bending ease.
