Frequently Asked Questions

The square neck is a significant departure; it's flat and wide, best suited for those familiar with resonator neck profiles or open tunings.
The 30mm cone height contributes to a louder, more pronounced resonator tone with a strong fundamental and plenty of projection.
The action is adjustable, but given the square neck and intended use, you'll likely want a slightly higher action for comfortable slide technique.
