1. What makes Luna Guitars different?
Luna Guitars
are designed to maximize your playing comfort. They
are fashioned to stimulate the mind and to appeal
to the unique sensibility of creative individuals.
Luna instruments are crafted
with the features that make guitars easier to play:
slender necks for easier fretting, smaller headstocks
for a more elegant profile, and lighter weight for
long-set endurance. Selected models also feature compact,
easy-to-handle size that's especially ideal for young
players.
Luna Guitars reflect a passionate,
engaging and alluring color palette. The intricate
inlaid designs of the Flora and Fauna models are inspired
by the exquisite beauty of nature and finely crafted
in abalone and mother-of-pearl for a visual presence
as distinctive as their rich, resplendent tones. The
beautiful Muse series captures timeless Celtic designs,
and the innovative Henna models mirror the living
artwork that people the world over have celebrated
in body painting for centuries.
Luna's newest classic art designs
speak to the goddess in all of us with luminous reproductions
of images that evoke the timeless grace of women through
the ages. Their mellow tonal range produces an enchanting
resonance that is the perfect complement to the instruments'
striking aura. The Andromeda and Athena lines bring
to life an array of exciting, feature-packed models
for electric guitar players. Whatever your playing style,
you'll find that Luna Guitars has created an ideal instrument
for you.

2.
Why are Luna Guitars perfect for both beginners and serious
players?
Luna Guitars
are built for comfort. Players with smaller hands
can reach notes and chords with greater ease on our
guitars' slimmer necks. An instrument that's easy
to play from the moment you pick it up is one you'll
want to keep playing. Whether you're strumming for
the first time or an experienced guitarist, an instrument
that fits you like a glove makes playing a joy and
keeps players of all ages and skill levels motivated.
The Aurora
line of student guitars offers models scaled for younger
players - no wrestling with full-sized, deep-bodied
instruments. Lightweight and easy on the pocket, these
acoustics and electrics boast the distinctive Luna
"look" and provide the perfect introduction to a lifetime
of music-making. For the young player who prefers
an electric guitar, the Pandora mini models pair full-size
guitar features with a size that's perfect for smaller
hands.
Serious musicians - and those who will be - love the
uncompromising quality of Luna Guitars. Bass notes
are robust and solid. Chords ring with the full brilliance
you expect from a well-crafted instrument.

11. Where
are Luna Guitars made?
| Luna guitars
are designed by our staff here in the United States
, then manufactured to our strict specifications by
instrument specialists in China . In fact, most guitar
companies in operation today have some or all of their
instruments built in China . In today's global marketplace,
China is experiencing rapid economic growth and has
become a trusted source in many areas of manufacturing.
Throughout the design and construction
process, Luna's leadership team maintains close communication
with all of our vendors. Each instrument that arrives
in our Tampa, Florida headquarters is inspected by
a technician, who also performs a detailed set-up process
on each guitar before it is sent to a Luna authorized
dealer. We are dedicated to providing you with quality
musical instruments and we stand behind every model
with our Luna Guitars limited lifetime warranty.

12. What
kind of strings should I use on my Luna Guitar?
Today, there are many
options in guitar strings. Often, the best choice
is a matter of personal taste. Gauge refers
to the weight of the string and you can select
medium, light or extra light gauge. Lighter
gauges tend to be easier for new players who
don't have well-developed callouses yet.
The metal the strings are made of will affect
the sound they produce (gauge does too, though
not as radically). Stainless steel, nickel,
bronze, phosphor-bronze, silk and steel are
just a few of the options. You might ask your
music store to let you play guitars with different
kinds of strings to see what they sound like.
Or try strings made from a different material
each time you change your strings. This is a
good way to live with each kind for a while
and can help you get a pretty good idea of which
material produces the kind of sound you like
best. Don't be afraid to experiment and see
what you like and what feels best to your fingers.
The type of guitar you play also will limit
your string options. Electric or acoustic; 6-string,
12-string or bass - each calls for different
types of strings. Your authorized Luna Guitars
dealer can help you make an informed choice
to meet your playing needs.
