Frequently Asked Questions

Plastic combs are more hygienic and resistant to swelling from moisture, but often lack the warmth and resonance of wood.
It's fine for casual jamming, but the limited volume and dynamic range might be a constraint in a louder band setting.
Bending is possible, but the reeds aren't designed for advanced bending techniques; it'll require more effort and may not yield the same results.
