The Black Box Sound Hole

Black Box side sound hole This is fitted as standard to all our instruments. The personal sound hole is situated on the side of the instrument facing you, so the sound is directed up to you. It is there for your personal listening, useful when you are playing with others as it ensures you can hear what you are playing. Please specify if you are left or right handed when ordering an instrument as this will affect which side we put it on.

Strap buttons and jack plug sockets

strap buttonsBlack Box jack plug socket We fit our instruments with 2 strap buttons and a jack plug socket as standard. These are there for your convenience. However, although we provide a jack plug socket, we do not recommend or endorse the use of transducers as they cannot reproduce the true sound of the cone.
