Frequently Asked Questions

Carbon fiber reacts more consistently to picking force, providing a wider dynamic range and a more controlled response – it's less prone to unwanted overtones.
It allows the carbon fiber top to vibrate more freely, decoupling it from the body and maximizing its resonance for improved volume and sustain.
The finish is durable but, like any gloss finish, it's best to protect it with a good quality case and occasional polishing to avoid scratches.
