Frequently Asked Questions
The K Custom Dark will be significantly darker and more washy; the A-Series is much brighter and more defined.
While it’s versatile, its bright tone might get lost in very heavy, low-tuned music; it’s best suited for more mid-range focused styles.
The ‘Regular’ finish is slightly more matte, providing a more controlled, less piercing tone, while ‘Brilliant’ will be louder and more shimmering.
