The thing I don't like is a coating. I want to feel real wood in my hand.

And a coating will get ribbed off after a while? While wood will wear the signs of usage with proudness

But domingo offered all 3 types without coating, right? Pau Ferro is not coated but has "hand rubbed oil finish" which would make it difficult to be coated ...


After all these years having a 440 I realized that this means having an attitude... and a budget.
