Frequently Asked Questions

The Pizzicato setting optimizes the pickup for plucked notes, reducing unwanted resonance, while Arco is tuned for bowed playing with a warmer, more natural tone.
While not as traditionally resonant as a solid wood body, the composite construction provides surprising sustain and clarity, especially when combined with the Polar pickup's sensitivity.
The 1/4 in output is for standard amplifiers or mixers, while the XLR output provides a balanced signal for professional recording or direct connection to a PA system.
