Frequently Asked Questions
The Lyrachord provides a more focused and slightly warmer tone with enhanced sustain compared to traditional wood, but lacks some of the complex overtones found in all-wood construction.
The rounded C neck is generally comfortable, but the shorter scale length might feel a bit cramped for those with very large hands used to longer scales.
The OP-4BT tuner is functional for quick adjustments, but it's not as precise or feature-rich as a dedicated pedal tuner; it's best for minor tweaks.
