Frequently Asked Questions
V-Class bracing significantly reduces the tension and complexity often associated with 12-strings, making them more responsive and easier to play without sacrificing volume.
Crelicam ebony offers a denser, smoother feel, resulting in faster playing and improved note clarity—it’s a subtle but noticeable upgrade for demanding players.
The ES2 is surprisingly adept at capturing the nuances of the 12-string, providing a balanced and natural amplified tone that doesn't sound overly harsh or brittle.
