Frequently Asked Questions
Okoume offers a slightly more direct and less complex tone than rosewood; it’s brighter but lacks some of rosewood's warmth and richness.
The 'C' profile neck is generally considered comfortable, but the 52mm nut width might feel a little wide for very small hands; a setup could alleviate this.
The clip-on tuner is fine for basic tuning, but a dedicated tuner or tuning app will provide more precision for more advanced players.
