Frequently Asked Questions
The Vesper offers more clarity and a slightly less metallic, more 'woody' tone compared to a classic National, while retaining plenty of resonator character.
Matte finishes generally show fingerprints and minor scuffs more easily than gloss finishes, but Beard's finish is quite durable and will age gracefully.
The Fishman pickup is designed to minimize feedback, but proper gain staging and potentially a feedback suppressor might be needed in very loud stage environments.
