While both models utilize the same pickup system as found in the SVC100, the SVC200 features folding leg supports, removable chest and arm supports. The SVC50’s leg supports are a single unit design that is easily removed from the instrument’s alder body. Setting up either model is fast and easy with large knobs that quickly attach and firmly fix the supports in place. In their performance configuration, they provide the player with a totally natural feel and excellent support. Full, Rich Tone Enhanced With Spacious Reverb Tone is what makes an instrument special.
