The intelligent design of the IQ is
evident at first glance. The player who takes on the unusual arrangement of the
frets will be rewarded with much more relaxed playing. The ergonomic armrest
offers additional support.
A small soundhole in the side increases
the joy of playing and allows better feedback for the player.
Thereby a more nuanced sound is
produced for the audience. The fanned frets effect an excellent yield, so that
the tone seems to resonate with almost endless sustain.
The asymmetrical design is taken up
by a streamlined head and a matching bridge which complement the visual
appearance harmoniously.
