Neck Profile

Comparing to other manufacturers we have a slightly different neck profile, which is of our own authorship.

Profile of our neck is compounding, which means that the shape is different at the beginning of the neck and different at the end of the neck, near the body.

It’s flat on the first neck positions and in the lowest part is designated for the thumb.

It is made so to ensure the convenience of playing.

It changes on high positions and on the top part of the neck, it’s not flat anymore, it has big radius, which makes our necks very comfortable, especially for 7 and 8 strings.

The neck in relation to the body has an angle opposite to what can be seen.

You can see it by looking at the side of the neck, where it is in the pocket from the players position.

Our necks are profiled in such a way so that people playing on thin necks wouldn’t feel any discomfort

We get an extremely low action of about 0.8-1mm at the 12th fret. We can go lower, but what’s the point? Usually with a lower action, the sustain dies and an inevitable fretbuzz appears
