Frequently Asked Questions

Conrad Götz has a reputation for decent wood selection, but independent inspection is always best for critical applications.
The manually lacquered finish is good for the price point, but it lacks the depth and complexity of truly high-end, aged varnish.
The closed varnish makes it relatively durable, but a dedicated case is highly recommended to protect it from bumps and humidity.
