Frequently Asked Questions
The mahogany body offers a warmer, more mellow tone than their brass models, lacking some of the brass’s overt sparkle and projection.
The padauk neck has a medium-C profile, which is generally comfortable but slightly thinner than many standard acoustics, so there may be a brief adjustment period.
The nitrocellulose finish is relatively thin and can be susceptible to checking with significant humidity or temperature fluctuations, requiring careful storage.
