Frequently Asked Questions
It’s a good approximation, but lacks the complexity and subtle nuances of instruments costing significantly more – the lower frequencies are less developed.
The varnish is generally well-applied, but the antique shading means some areas are thicker, and it’s a softer resin varnish so care is needed to avoid chipping with regular handling.
Someone with consistent practice habits and a developing ear for tone will notice a significant improvement in responsiveness and projection compared to basic student models.
