Frequently Asked Questions
Pearwood offers a more restrained, focused tone with a slightly darker color than rosewood, and a less boomy response than mahogany. It’s a more subtle tonal shift, leaning towards clarity.
Yes, oil and wax finishes require more care than polymer coatings; they're more susceptible to scratches and need occasional re-oiling to maintain their luster and protect the wood.
Walnut offers a slightly harder and more porous feel than ebony; it might feel a touch drier to some players, but provides excellent note definition and sustain.
