- • Ebony fingerboard offers a smooth, fast playing experience and excellent note definition.
- • Rosewood binding and Mother-of-Pearl inlays add a touch of refined elegance to the instrument.
CONS

Frequently Asked Questions
Koa offers a warmer, more focused sound with richer overtones compared to the brighter, more responsive Sitka spruce, creating a different tonal palette.
The gloss finish is quite durable but requires careful care. Over years, it might develop a slight patina, which can enhance the Koa's natural beauty.
The ES2 is a significant improvement; its mic-based element greatly reduces feedback compared to previous generation systems, making it more stage-friendly.
