Frequently Asked Questions

Beechwood generally offers a warmer, more fundamental tone than maple, with less high-end sparkle, lending itself to a more vintage feel.
Absolutely; they provide a noticeably more secure grip, reducing the risk of thread stripping, especially when tuning aggressively.
Like any vintage-style finish, it’s more delicate than modern lacquer finishes, so careful handling and protection are recommended.
