2. Action Control Neck
This player-friendly innovation contributes to a more resonant sound and easier-than-ever string height adjustability. A long-tenon neck joint improves tonal transfer with the body for added warmth and sustain, while the shimless action control feature allows quick, precise string-height adjustments with a simple turn of a bolt through the soundhole.
3. Claria™ Pickup System
Developed with input from performing artists and live sound engineers, Claria™ pairs a reimagined undersaddle piezo pickup with a new proprietary preamp to deliver easy, reliable amplified tone in any setting. Designed for versatility, its clear, natural voice can be shaped from lo-fi warmth to contemporary detail using the soundhole-mounted Volume, Mid-Contour and Tone controls.
