Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, a solid top generally offers more complexity, but the laminated spruce here is surprisingly responsive and projects well, especially after some playing-in.
Yes, the individual workshop setup adds approximately 2-3 days to the shipping time, but it’s a worthwhile investment for a playable instrument.
While it can be used for those styles, the laminated construction will produce a less nuanced tone compared to higher-end basses built for those specific applications.
