Frequently Asked Questions

It's a basic piezo system, so don't expect a natural acoustic tone—more for practice than performance, but it's surprisingly usable.
The neck is fairly standard classical guitar profile; it’s a bit wider and flatter than many steel-string necks, requiring a slight adjustment.
The high-gloss finish is relatively soft, so yes, it's more prone to scratches than a satin finish; handle with care.
