Frequently Asked Questions

Thomann’s sourcing practices should be verified directly, but Grendilla is a protected species, so responsible forestry is essential.
The included mouthpiece is functional, but a step down in quality; upgrading will significantly improve the instrument’s tonal projection and response.
Grendilla is more porous than traditional grenadilla and ABS, requiring more diligent humidity control and occasional oiling to prevent cracking.
