Frequently Asked Questions

The walnut adds a touch of warmth and low-end resonance, softening the often brighter attack of pure maple. Expect a rounder, more vintage-inspired tone.
The hardware is perfectly acceptable for casual playing and smaller gigs, but serious gigging musicians will probably want to upgrade for enhanced stability and durability.
Matte finishes generally show fingerprints and smudges more readily than gloss finishes, so careful wiping after each use is recommended to maintain the look.
