Frequently Asked Questions

Aluminum tends to have a quicker decay than wood, but the design and bracing compensate, providing a surprisingly resonant and focused sound, though lacking the extended sustain of a traditional cello.
The passive pickup provides a usable signal for recording, but its dynamic range is limited; an active preamp or a higher-output pickup could offer more flexibility and a cleaner signal.
The anodized finish is quite durable and resistant to scratches, but it's not as easily polished as a traditional lacquer finish; harsh chemicals should be avoided.
