Frequently Asked Questions

The Lyrachord offers a more focused, slightly less complex tone than all-wood; it’s brighter and projects well but lacks some of the warmth and sustain.
The rounded C profile is generally comfortable, but some players with very large hands might find it slightly narrow; it's a good middle-ground for most.
The tuner is surprisingly accurate and convenient for quick on-the-fly adjustments, although it’s not a replacement for a dedicated pedal tuner for critical tuning.
