Frequently Asked Questions

The composite comb offers a cleaner, more consistent tone with less woodiness, but lacks the subtle nuances and breath response of a traditional wood comb. It's more hygienic and less prone to cracking, though.
The C-20 Olive Ab is a bit more focused and slightly less 'airy' than the Promaster, with a more direct response. It's a good stepping stone if you want a more controlled, blues-oriented sound.
The finish is reasonably durable, but like any painted surface, it's susceptible to scratches with heavy use. A little care will keep it looking good for a long time.
