Frequently Asked Questions
It's less resonant and airy than a full hollow, but the basswood provides a warmer, more controlled tone, especially when amplified.
The 'C' shape neck profile is fairly standard and accommodating, but the 43mm nut width might feel slightly narrower for those with very large hands.
The Super 80 pickups handle moderate gain well, but pushing them too hard can result in muddiness; it excels in classic rock and blues territory.
