Frequently Asked Questions
The push/pull pot on the bass control toggles between active and passive mode, giving you a wider range of tonal options depending on your needs.
The 'C' profile is a fairly standard and comfortable shape, but it's not a particularly thick 'C', so players with very large hands might prefer a slightly more substantial neck.
The finish itself doesn’t drastically affect the tone, but the Sandblasted texture can allow the wood to resonate more freely compared to a thick, glossy finish.
