Less hand fatigue.
It starts with a comfortably slim neck profile, which is designed to be inviting and approachable for many different playing styles. Our patented neck joint also allows the string height above the frets (a.k.a. the “action”) to be set low, which makes it easier to fret the strings and form chords.
Micro-adjustability.
At some point, a guitar will need a neck angle adjustment. Our neck joint was designed with serviceability in mind. With our glue-free assembly and precision spacers, that angle can be adjusted in minutes by a certified guitar technician, ensuring a lifetime of great playability and sound.
