Frequently Asked Questions

Active electronics need a 9V battery and offer more precise EQ control, but can be more susceptible to hum if your grounding isn’t perfect.
The wenge fretboard has a factory-applied satin finish—it's not oiled, but it's quite playable and comfortable right out of the box.
While it offers clarity and articulation, the J/J configuration leans more towards a modern, punchy tone; it won’t replicate a vintage, muddy split-coil sound.
