Frequently Asked Questions
The D-Tuna allows quick drop tuning without significantly altering string tension, but fine-tuning is still recommended for optimal intonation.
The fingerboard is likely unfinished and will benefit from occasional oiling with a dedicated fretboard conditioner to prevent drying and cracking.
Direct mounting reduces unwanted vibrations and can result in a tighter, more focused tone with improved clarity and sustain.
