Frequently Asked Questions

The tuning is unconventional, but the die-cast machine heads offer reliable tuning stability; it's best suited for experimenting or creating unique textures.
The neck is typical of many short-scale guitars – relatively slim and comfortable, but might feel a little cramped for players with very large hands who prefer a thicker profile.
While it captures the essence of an ST, the shorter scale length results in a slightly brighter, more compressed tone with a different feel; it's a trade-off for the compact size.
