Frequently Asked Questions
Ziricote is a dense, oily wood, providing a smooth, fast feel and excellent grip, though it might require a short break-in period.
While visually striking, the thick gloss finish will subtly dampen the natural resonance compared to a more open-pore finish, but the tonewood quality largely compensates.
Parts availability might be more restricted than standard models, so having a qualified Furch technician for any future work is advisable.
