Frequently Asked Questions

The 'C' profile is a comfortable standard, but it’s generally a bit more rounded and less defined than a vintage-style 'C' on a higher-end Fender.
While they’re not high-output, the ceramic pickups offer enough punch for rock and even some lighter metal styles – you’ll just need to adjust your expectations.
It's a padded gig bag, perfectly adequate for carrying the guitar around town, but a hard case would be preferable for more serious travel.
