Frequently Asked Questions
The SQ-3 pickup is surprisingly good, but lacks the absolute nuance of premium systems; expect a clean, usable sound, but not studio-grade fidelity.
The armrest is permanently affixed to the guitar’s body – it's part of the design and construction.
Ovangkol is harder than ebony, offering durability, but the feel is slightly different; some find it less silky, though it plays perfectly well and settles with use.
