Frequently Asked Questions
The Golden Melody is warmer and more mellow than the Special 20, with a slightly more forgiving feel. The Special 20 is brighter and more responsive, but the Golden Melody is more comfortable for longer sessions.
Like any metal, they can scratch with rough handling, but the thicker gauge provides good protection and a premium feel. Polishing can minimize minor blemishes.
The plastic comb is durable, but extreme temperature changes or prolonged exposure to moisture *could* cause issues. Proper care and storage will extend its lifespan.
