Frequently Asked Questions
The finish itself doesn't significantly impact the tone; the wood choices are the primary factor. It's purely an aesthetic difference.
The Modified Low Oval is generally comfortable, but players with very large hands might prefer a slightly wider neck profile.
The 000-17 will generally have a slightly more focused and refined tone than the 000-18, which often has a broader, more 'open' sound due to subtle bracing variations.
