3/8 to sinks

I bought an old house that has 3/4 copper water lines but it reduces to 3/8 to the sinks and shower. I don't have the well hooked up yet so I don't know how it works. Wouldn't this result in high pressure but a low volume of water? Thanks

Every sink known to man reduces down to 3/8 at the shutoff so I dont think you have anything to worry about.

Large supply lines help keep pressure from dropping when someone turns on the water in another part of the house when you are us in it elsewhere.
