Frequently Asked Questions

The Mi-Si system is known for its relatively natural and balanced amplified tone; it's not as aggressively bright as some piezo systems, but lacks the ultimate nuance of a higher-end, dedicated microphone.
The mahogany neck has a fairly standard 'C' shape profile; while the 52mm nut width is fairly standard for classical guitars, some players with very large hands might find it slightly snug.
The included case is a high-quality, form-fitting hard case, offering good protection for general use; however, for frequent international travel, a more robust, airline-approved case would be advisable.
