Strings matter more than the frame does. No matter how stiff the frame, no matter how flexy, no matter how open or closed, or modifed with silicone, lead tape, balanced swing wts, etc, string matters more than the frame. Why is that? It's not like a violin out there. The best violin will sound like **** without good gut string. ETc. for all string based instruments. Why do they all sound best with gut? Frequency, connection to the bed. Vibration. Feel. Sound is related to our game. A piano uses metal string, why not gut? Tens. loss occurs with the best piano tuner/string/instrument. You can have the best frame, and it will play like **** with bad string. You can have great string, and the worst frame from costco/walmart/kmart will play great. That's why.
