Frequently Asked Questions

Bocote is denser than mahogany, resulting in a brighter, more focused tone with a slightly more complex harmonic structure – a bit more 'zing' and projection.
The binding is well-applied, but rosewood can be brittle; careful handling is advised to avoid chipping, especially around fret edges.
The gloss finish requires regular cleaning with a soft cloth to prevent build-up; a light coat of polish can help maintain its luster and protect the wood.
