Frequently Asked Questions

Passive pickups offer a more natural, acoustic-like tone but lack the EQ flexibility of active systems, making tonal shaping more limited.
Like most gloss finishes, it’s susceptible to scratches, so a polish and careful handling are recommended to keep it looking pristine.
The neck profile is generally a bit slimmer and flatter than a traditional acoustic, which many players find more comfortable, especially for faster playing.
