Frequently Asked Questions
Toona Kalantas is known for its excellent stability and stiffness, often proving more resistant to humidity changes than Spanish Cedar, which can be a benefit for long-term playability.
The Savarez Cantiga High Tension 510AJ strings contribute to a lively, responsive tone with good projection; they’re a good match for a student’s developing technique and provide a satisfying feel.
This traditional construction method, where the neck joins the body at a distinctive angle, is believed by many luthiers to enhance the guitar’s projection and resonance, a hallmark of classic Spanish guitar design.
