Frequently Asked Questions
Mahogany generally has a warmer, mellower tone than Koa, lacking some of the Koa’s brighter sparkle and projection.
The neck is a standard 'C' shape, moderately sized, which should be comfortable for most hand sizes, though players preferring a thinner profile might find it a touch thick.
The construction is surprisingly good for the price, with decent fretwork and accurate intonation, though meticulous inspection is always recommended.
