This peticular Spruce Top geetar just was the loudest tuneful one of the bunch including a second Solid Spruce Model which gets me to the Fretted vs Non fretted

Then the Spruce top, and then the all Solid Mahogony & up from there

I played the Solid Mahogony one a Rumbler and 2 of the Solid Spruce Top ones all in the same day

Just darker sounding than either of the Solid Spruce top models I played

My Kala is Solid Spruce top and laminate back & sides

One minor disappointment for me is, apparently, this hollow body U-bass is not compatible with my Line 6 Relay wireless system

The only negative is that the pickup isn’t working evenly across all 4 strings - the low E is definitely quieter than the rest

First week using it at the JEMS My Hermon Family retreat, it was hard to dial in through my Hartke HA1200 KickBack12 the Low E was weak as was the G com,pared to the A & D strings
