Frequently Asked Questions

SmartMounts allow the shell to vibrate more freely, producing a more open and resonant tone with less hardware interference.
The high-gloss lacquer is durable but requires care; avoid direct impacts and use a microfiber cloth for cleaning to prevent scratches.
The AQ2’s 7-ply shells are thicker than the ProLite’s, offering more sustain and a warmer tone, but thinner than the higher-end Performance series shells.
