Frequently Asked Questions

The active preamp boosts the signal and provides a wider dynamic range, resulting in a more powerful and defined sound, especially at higher volumes.
The Bongo 4 typically features a comfortable C-shape profile that accommodates a wide range of hand sizes, though it's slightly more substantial than a super-thin neck.
The finish is a durable polyurethane, but darker colors like Mantis Green can show minor scuffs more readily than lighter finishes – regular care will help maintain its appearance.
