Frequently Asked Questions
Palosanto generally offers a slightly drier, more focused tone than Rosewood, with less sustain and a more percussive character, which is often preferred for flamenco.
The high tension requires more finger strength and can feel stiffer initially. It’s advisable to gradually adjust to the tension over a few practice sessions.
The finish itself doesn’t directly impact the tone, but a thicker finish *can* slightly dampen vibrations. Ramírez’s finish is thin and designed to minimize this effect.
