Frequently Asked Questions

The active preamp boosts the signal and allows for tonal shaping via onboard controls, providing more output and a cleaner sound, particularly useful for genres like funk or metal.
The black walnut fretboard has a slightly harder feel than rosewood and may require more frequent cleaning to prevent string grime buildup, but it plays well and offers a unique aesthetic.
The longer scale length contributes to a tighter low-end response, but can feel a bit more stretched for players with smaller hands or shorter arms – it’s best suited for those accustomed to longer scales.
