Frequently Asked Questions
The modern C profile is similar to a Fender 'C', but generally a bit thinner and more comfortable, making it accessible for players with smaller hands.
The matte finish is fairly durable, but it's more prone to showing fingerprints and smudges than gloss finishes – regular wiping is recommended.
The build quality is surprisingly good for the price, though don’t expect premium-level craftsmanship; expect some minor cosmetic imperfections but solid functionality.
