Frequently Asked Questions

The walnut adds a touch of warmth and complexity, rounding out the maple's brightness, but it’s not a dominant factor – expect a maple-leaning sound overall.
The matte finish is susceptible to scratches, but the application appears well-done, minimizing chipping. Careful handling will keep it looking sharp.
The Nickelworks strainer is noticeably smoother and more precise than most budget-friendly strainers, offering a more professional feel and better tuning stability.
