Frequently Asked Questions
It's noticeably more refined and nuanced, with a more focused midrange thanks to the flamed maple back and sides; the standard dreadnoughts often have a broader, more raw sound.
While Richlite offers excellent durability and tonal properties, it lacks the traditional aesthetic feel of bone or ebony, which some players may prefer.
The custom shop build quality, the unique Doves in Flight inlays, and the combination of premium woods create an instrument that holds its value and offers a truly special playing experience.
