Frequently Asked Questions

It offers a better balance of tone and build quality than many similarly priced instruments; the solid wood construction is a key differentiator.
The natural resin varnish is reasonably durable, but like any hand-applied finish, it’s best to avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive materials.
While perfectly acceptable for beginners and intermediates, a more experienced player might find the carbon fiber bow limits their dynamic range and responsiveness; upgrading is common.
