Frequently Asked Questions
The all-ebony construction really tightens up the low-end response; it's more focused than many ebony-topped models with mahogany back and sides.
The satin mahogany neck is surprisingly grippy; it’s not slick like some highly polished necks, making it comfortable for extended playing.
It comes with a basic gigbag, suitable for casual transport and light protection; a hardshell case is recommended for serious travel.
