Each one is hand-aged with a unique result. The ageing does not involve sanding, dinging or scuffing; this results in the playing surface being completely smooth with no unwanted scratchiness to the sound or feel.The Polished Brass version gives a rich, warm tone and a golden glow in the looks department.
