- • Under-saddle pickups, while functional, can sound a bit thin and lack dynamic response.
- • Die-cast tuners are adequate, but higher-end locking tuners would improve stability.

Frequently Asked Questions
The tuner is a chromatic tuner built into the preamp; it's surprisingly accurate for quick adjustments, though a dedicated pedal tuner is always preferable for critical gigs.
The Nyatoh neck has a fairly standard 'C' shape, so it should be comfortable for most hand sizes, though it's not a particularly slim profile.
The under-saddle system is functional for basic amplification, but it lacks the nuanced response of a soundhole or microphone system; it's best suited for smaller gigs or practice.
