One thing I didn't see discussed was the medium gauge for the strings.
When I ordered my Railboard, I originally thought to order light strings, as I was used to them on the old Ironwood that I had. But Emmett talked me out of that; with medium strings, the instrument seems to sing a little better, and while I haven't tried any other gauges on mine, I can only say that I'm happy with what I'm getting out of it!
