Frequently Asked Questions
Hide glue creates a tighter bond, allowing the wood to vibrate more freely, resulting in improved sustain and a more resonant tone.
They offer a smoother, more precise tuning experience and generally provide better stability, which is appreciated by serious players.
The aging is cosmetic; it’s a carefully applied finish to replicate the appearance of a vintage instrument, not actual wear from years of use.
