Frequently Asked Questions
Mango generally offers a richer, warmer tone with more overtones than mahogany, though both are excellent choices.
Absolutely; they provide much finer tuning adjustments and hold tuning much better, reducing frustrating retuning during practice or performance.
It's a beautiful finish, but it's less resistant to fingerprints and smudges than a gloss finish; regular wiping with a soft cloth is recommended.
