Frequently Asked Questions
The 'Po.' models are significantly louder and more aggressive, with a shorter sustain, compared to the warmer, more versatile Traditional series.
While they *can* be used, their aggressive nature makes them less ideal for jazz; the sound might be too overpowering and lack the subtlety needed.
Expect a clear, defined stick sound with a pronounced attack - it’s a crisp 'tick' rather than a washier tone.
