Frequently Asked Questions
The aged lacquer and distressing process open up the wood's pores, potentially contributing to a slightly more resonant and 'broken-in' tone, though the pickups have the most significant impact.
They are a unique design element for Valiant, offering a distinct visual flair and adding to the guitar's individuality.
Bolt-on necks generally offer a quicker response and a tighter low-end, but a set-neck may offer slightly more sustain and a more complex harmonic profile – it's a matter of preference.
