Frequently Asked Questions
The SmartMount minimizes contact points, allowing the shell to vibrate more freely and produce a longer, more natural sustain – it’s a noticeable improvement over older, more restrictive designs.
The high-gloss lacquer finish is susceptible to scratches, so careful handling and regular cleaning are recommended to maintain its appearance; a protective coat of polish can help mitigate minor damage.
Maple offers a warmer, more rounded tone than birch, which tends to be brighter and more focused; the 7-ply construction helps balance the maple's inherent warmth with a good amount of projection.
