Frequently Asked Questions
The shorter scale length offers a more compressed feel and warmer tone, making it exceptionally comfortable for fingerpicking and blues, but limits low-end extension.
Absolutely; the Schatten system is renowned for its natural amplified tone and low feedback, making it a reliable choice for both stage and studio.
Koa is relatively stable, but like all solid wood instruments, it benefits from moderate humidity; consistent care will ensure longevity.
