Frequently Asked Questions
Morado offers a denser feel than rosewood, similar to ebony, and can impart a slightly brighter, more articulate tone – a nice alternative to the more common options.
While they excel in funk and rock, the Soapbars’ clarity and punch also lend themselves surprisingly well to cleaner styles; the active EQ allows for tonal shaping across a wide range.
It's a clever lever system – a quick release allows for fast string changes without needing to adjust the bridge; Sadowsky's design maintains excellent stability and intonation.
