Frequently Asked Questions

The Country tuning emphasizes draw bends, making it ideal for traditional country licks and a more 'twangy' sound, but limits cross-harp playing.
ABS is more hygienic and resistant to cracking, but some players prefer the warmer, more complex tone of a wooden comb – it's a trade-off.
B is a bit higher pitched, so it might be slightly more challenging initially, but it’s perfectly playable and offers a unique sound once you get the hang of it.
