With a nut width of 43 mm, the mahogany neck fulfils the perfect prerequisite for expressive strumming and filigree flatpicking, while still feeling great in the hand. The easy-grip slim 'C' neck profile and the pau ferro fingerboard allow the picking hand to glide effortlessly over all 20 frets, which are marked by means of practical dot inlays. Particularly noteworthy here is the shortened 612mm scale, which requires less effort to grip and thus benefits inexperienced guitarists in particular. Meanwhile, tuning-stable vintage-style machine heads, a compensated bone bridge inlay and, last but not least, the high-quality bone nut ensure flawless intonation that guarantees lasting playing pleasure.
In order to be able to show off the mature sound of the handy mini guitar on stage, it is equipped with the Fishman Flex preamp with piezo under the bridge in proven quality. Connected to an amp or via PA, a natural, feedback-resistant sound is created, which can also be optimally mixed by means of volume and tone control.
