Frequently Asked Questions

Active electronics boost the signal and offer tonal shaping, but require a 9V battery and can’t be used passively.
The 20in radius offers a vintage feel, which some players may find slightly rounder than a flatter, modern profile, but is generally considered comfortable.
The shorter scale produces a warmer, rounder tone with less string tension, making it easier to play and offering a different sonic character.
