Frequently Asked Questions

Pyramid strings are designed for lap steel, offering a rounder, warmer tone with a unique metallic shimmer that's characteristic of vintage steel guitars.
Composite fretboards are very durable and resist wear significantly better than wood, but they lack the 'feel' and aging characteristics of a traditional wood board.
Absolutely, but you'll need to adjust the string gauges and potentially the nut slots to accommodate different tunings; it's a bit more involved than standard guitar tuning.
