Frequently Asked Questions

The SQ1 uses a simpler hardware package and a slightly thinner shell than the ProLite, resulting in a brighter, more focused sound and a lighter feel. It’s a great value, but lacks the ProLite’s extended resonance.
It’s a lacquered finish, so it’s reasonably durable, but fingerprints and smudges will be visible. Regular cleaning with a soft cloth is recommended to keep it looking its best.
A medium-to-heavy nylon tip will bring out the warmth and body of the birch shell. Avoid very hard tips which might sound harsh.
