Frequently Asked Questions

The walnut adds a touch of warmth and complexity, reducing some of the brightness and providing a more rounded, vintage-inspired sound compared to a purely maple shell.
The shells are not heavily damped, allowing for a more resonant and natural tone; you’ll likely want to experiment with damping depending on your playing style and desired sound.
The shells are a medium thickness, around 5.5mm – 6mm, offering a good balance between projection and sensitivity suitable for jazz and smaller venues.
