Shifted Scale
Shifting the scale up to 2 inches towards the plucking hand in comparison to a traditional design, we move the bass side of the register closer to the player's body, decreasing significantly the arm's stretching, together with the forearm and wrist twisting.
Shifted Neck Pocket
Following a similar principle, by shifting towards the plucking hand the area where the neck fits the body, it allows for an obstacle-free movement of the fretting hand thumb through the back of the neck, facilitating enourmosly the access to the upper register of the instrument. In addition, a deep lower cutout, permits access to the 24th fret or beyond without awkward stretching or anti-natural hand postures.
Easy Fit
Both the Truss Rod and Control Cavity lids are magnetic, and are designed specifically to make any adjustments to the Truss Rod, Electronics or Battery changes a breeze.
Conscious weight reduction and distribution
In pursuit of perfect lightness and balance, which implies an homogeneous weight distribution in relation to the player's backbone, we purposely carve chambers of specific dimension and location throughout the body, aiming to remove overall weight, and more importantly, to counteract the frequent "neck dive" effect, induced by the leverage produced by the neck and its hardware. In other words, we aim to align the instrument's center of mass with the player's vertical center-line. This design minimizes injuries and allows playing more relaxed and for longer periods.
Infinite Radius Fretboard
Same as the classical and flamenco guitars, we incorporate flat fretboards, achieving very low actions, which facilitate technics such as taping, chord melody, and yes, shredding. If it was good for PACO, it's good for us!
Zero Fret
We implement Zero Fret in our instruments as it carries several benefits over the traditional nut, such as achieving an homogenaus tone between fretted and open air notes, and the versatility of being able to change strings' gauge without having to modify the nut.
