Frequently Asked Questions
The neck is a fairly standard 'C' shape, but the 3/4 scale length does make it feel narrower and more manageable for smaller hands.
Absolutely, the standard pickup routings allow for easy pickup swaps – it's a common upgrade path for these guitars.
The die-cast tuners are a plus, and while it's not a premium-level locking system, tuning stability is generally quite good with proper setup.
