Frequently Asked Questions
The ARE process simulates years of aging, resulting in a warmer, more complex tone with enhanced overtones and a quicker response.
The System 71 is surprisingly natural; it’s designed to amplify the guitar's inherent tone rather than color it, though EQ adjustments are always possible.
The neck profile is a comfortable 'C' shape, similar to many Yamaha models, offering a balance of support and ease of play for most hand sizes.
