Rustic mold is nothing other than the black discoloration in the wood. If you stop the decay process of the wood in time, you get a very light wood for the body with an infinitely fascinating variety of patterns in the wood. The guitars all weigh just 2.4-2.8 kg.

Mahogany from an old staircase from 1971 is used for the neck. The tree did not have to die for the guitar and the wood is well seasoned. The fingerboard and the other wooden parts made of walnut harmonize perfectly with the woods used.
