Body and guitar necks are premium grade tone woods for full lush lows and shimmering highs resulting organic, woody tones that work well with all styles of music.
How Does It Play?
This Xotic features Jescar 55090 Narrow/ Tall fretwire. If you want a tall fret, but something a little narrower than jumbo to help with intonation accuracy, 55090 is the ticket! The string action sits a little over 4/64” on the low E string and right at 4/64” on the high E string, measured at the 12th fret. The neck is an asymmetrical modern C profile, measuring about 0.84” at the first fret and 0.92” at the 12th. The carve features a slight D shape on the bass side and C shape on the treble side, making it quite playable for both lead and rhythm.
