Frequently Asked Questions

It's a comfortable, medium-thin profile, slightly thinner than some vintage '60s necks, but still retains a classic feel and isn't overly slim.
They're surprisingly good! The Opus-1s offer a warm, defined tone with a nice amount of output – a significant step up from many budget pickups.
The HB-80R is a decent practice amp, but its tonal limitations will eventually hold back the guitar's potential; consider a more versatile amplifier for gigging or recording.
