Frequently Asked Questions

Roasted jatoba is very stable and resists humidity changes, resulting in a consistently smooth feel and a slightly brighter, more articulate tone than traditional rosewood.
The Roswell HAF pickups are surprisingly good; they offer a classic, slightly vintage-voiced humbucker tone with good clarity and a decent amount of output – a genuine step above many budget pickups.
The 'C' profile is generally comfortable, but it's slightly on the slimmer side; players with very large hands might find it a bit narrow, though most will find it perfectly manageable.
