Frequently Asked Questions
Jatoba is generally stable, but keeping it properly humidified, like any hardwood, will prevent cracking and maintain playability.
The preamp is serviceable for basic amplification, but expect a fairly generic acoustic sound – it’s best suited for background music or casual gigs rather than critical recordings.
The 'C' profile is comfortable and familiar, but it's slightly thicker and less refined than premium brands; it's a good starting point, though.
