Frequently Asked Questions
The D-28 is generally louder and more forward, while the Cherry Hill D offers a more controlled, balanced, and mature tone with less initial 'bite.'
The Cherry Hill D likely has a more vintage-style neck profile, potentially feeling slightly fuller, which some players may find less familiar but ultimately very comfortable.
Cherry is a slightly softer wood than mahogany, so be mindful of bumps and scratches; regular waxing and careful handling will help preserve the finish’s integrity.
