Frequently Asked Questions
The neck is a 'modified low oval' – slightly flatter than a vintage Martin, but still comfortable and familiar to many players, offering a balance between speed and sustain.
No, sunburst finishes are hand-applied, so there will be slight variations in color and shading between individual guitars – this is part of their unique character.
The Clapton model's slightly modified bracing and nut width contribute to a more open, responsive sound with a touch more bass and a smoother feel, though the tonal differences are subtle.
