Frequently Asked Questions
Koa is inherently warmer and more responsive than spruce, offering a quicker attack and richer harmonics; spruce will generally have more projection and a broader dynamic range.
The gloss finish is durable but will require regular cleaning with a quality guitar polish to maintain its luster and protect the wood from moisture and scratches.
The Expression System 2 is exceptionally well-suited for live performance; its feedback rejection is excellent, and it accurately captures the guitar’s natural tone at higher volumes.
