Frequently Asked Questions

Rosewood produces a warmer, more complex tone with more pronounced overtones, but it's less consistent than synthetic bars.
The Apex frame is well-built, but the overall weight means careful handling is still required for transport.
With consistent humidity control and care, the bars should last for many years, though they will naturally darken and potentially develop minor cosmetic imperfections.
