Frequently Asked Questions
The Antigua’s spruce top provides significantly more headroom and a clearer, more nuanced tone compared to models with laminated tops, offering a noticeable upgrade in responsiveness and projection.
The French polish is quite durable with proper care, but it's susceptible to scratches; it adds a layer of complexity to the tone, slightly dampening overtones for a more focused sound.
Ebony is generally stable, but like all solid wood instruments, the Antigua benefits from moderate humidity (around 45-55%) to prevent cracking or movement, particularly in drier climates.
