Frequently Asked Questions

Active electronics provide a more consistent and powerful signal, but limit passive tone shaping options. It’s best suited for players who prefer a defined, modern sound.
The 34in scale offers extended reach and a tighter low end, but may require some adjustment for players accustomed to shorter scales. It’s ideal for complex lines and low-frequency precision.
Wenge is denser and smoother than Rosewood, offering a faster feel and slightly brighter tonal character. It also requires a bit more care to prevent drying out.
