Frequently Asked Questions
The neck profile is a standard 'Modified Low Oval', generally comfortable but may feel thick for very small hands; a professional setup can help adjust this.
Tonally, they are remarkably similar; the lefthand designation primarily impacts the orientation of the instrument, not the core sound characteristics.
While visually appealing, open-gear tuners can be slightly less precise than sealed ones, but these are high-quality and offer a vintage feel; proper maintenance is key.
