Tenua

Small size for the big sound.

Source of Impulse
Above everything else, guard your heart. It is where your life comes from.
from Proverbs 4
Design
Convenient, lightweight and ergonomic are appropriate attributes to describe the Tenua model. The headless construction and small body shape reduce weight and give the guitar ultimate balance. The bevel at the left generates a comfortable armrest while giving the guitar a unique character.
Pronunciation

Interpretation
to raise good thoughts
Neck
Our necks are reinforced with carbon as standard, but we also use titanium on request. The dual-action truss rod is conveniently operated via an access below the fingerboard by means of a rotating disc. 24 stainless steel frets provide two full octaves and guarantee long durability.
Body Hardware
As a standard set, we install the Häussel BassBars as a set for our Tenua, which are controlled by means of a blend pot or a 3-way switch (other pickups on request). Volume and tone can be controlled by tone and volume potentiometers. For further sound shaping the setup can be extended with an active EQ on request. The output jack is located on the right frame. As standard bridge we use single bridges, which are milled from solid bell brass.
Inspiration of Thoughts
Tenua wants to motivate us to protect and direct our thoughts towards that which edifies.
