Frequently Asked Questions
Laurel burl generally adds a touch more airiness and complexity to the mahogany's warmth, creating a more nuanced and slightly more open sound.
Marleaux fretless fingerboards are typically a compound radius, starting around 12 in at the nut and flattening to 16 in at the bridge, for comfortable playability.
While versatile, the passive nature limits extreme tonal shaping; it excels at classic, organic tones but may require external effects for drastically different sounds.
