Frequently Asked Questions
The CNR system subtly adjusts the nut compensation, improving intonation accuracy and potentially enhancing perceived sustain, though the effect is subtle and primarily beneficial for precise playing.
Yes, the open pore finish offers a natural feel but requires more care; regular cleaning and occasional oiling will help protect it from scratches and moisture.
Compared to more basic Furch models, the D-ER a offers all-solid wood construction and the CNR system, making it a step up in terms of tone, build quality, and adjustability.
