Product Description

"Engineers flip out every time." Because of its construction, care must be given to the correct tuning and string gauges to avoid bridge, bracing and neck problems.

The string tension should be no more than 165lbs at pitch.

"Whenever you take one of these things into the studio, people always say, 'Wow! The strings supplied (.014, .018, .026w, .034w, .044w, .056w) allow G, D and similar tunings.
