Frequently Asked Questions
Ebony offers a drier, more controlled tone with less overtones than maple, resulting in a more focused and defined backbeat.
Black nickel hardware can tarnish over time, but a simple cleaning with a metal polish will keep them looking their best.
The satin oil finish provides a nice feel, but requires occasional re-oiling to maintain its luster and prevent drying; avoid harsh chemicals.
