Frequently Asked Questions
Jatoba is harder and generally feels smoother than rosewood, offering a bit more grip, and is more resistant to drying out and cracking.
It's a functional EQ, good for basic adjustments like boosting lows or taming harsh highs, but it lacks the finer control of more sophisticated onboard electronics.
The SR4 is a medium profile, slightly flatter than a 'C' shape; it’s comfortable for many, but those used to thicker necks might find it a bit thin.
