fingerhole size
what happens with, on the most basic level, gain or loose as finger holes change size. as a roookie, i like em a bit big cause shading and partial holing are so fun and easy.
The upside of a little smaller fingerholes?
thanks, rb

Re: fingerhole size
Hi Rob, The biggest difference between a small hole and large hole is volume and timbre. The next thing is speed, the small hole can be sealed quicker. It's more helpful for thin fingered players who like to play fast licks.
It was great seeing you and Kat at Chikuzen's Ro Camp.
All the best, Perry
