No tilting whippens, no tilting jacks, no warping, no shrinkage, no sliding center pins. It's early to know but I believe there will be less regulating because the material is stable. >> Why use a plastic jack that will last 500 years, when the soundboard and pin block will only last 75 to 100 years?
