Frequently Asked Questions

The piezo system blends with the humbuckers, providing a layered sound or can be used independently for a more acoustic tone; the controls allow for fine-tuning the balance.
Yes, it's noticeably longer than a standard 25.5” scale, requiring a bit of adjustment, especially for chording and lower tunings, but the neck profile helps mitigate this.
The push/pull switches offer gain boost and passive tone options, providing a wider range of tonal colors without needing external pedals; it's a really clever design.
