- • Okoume body offers a balanced, resonant tone with excellent sustain.
- • Roasted maple neck and fingerboard provide exceptional stability and smooth playability.
- • Hybrid PJ pickup configuration delivers versatile tones from growl to clarity.
- • Sadowsky's 2-way active electronics offer precise tonal shaping without harshness.
- • Okoume can be somewhat plain aesthetically compared to more exotic woods.
- • Bolt-on neck construction, while reliable, lacks the theoretical resonance of a neck-through design.
- • The push/pull preamp bypass isn't a true passive circuit – some purists might notice a slight difference.
