Full description
"With this instrument, we have created a variant with accessories made of domestic wood, which makes it sustainable and unique. They were all mane inside of our workshop and the wood comes from Switzerland. It is high-density spruce that has a much higher sound velocity and hardness than ebony. This makes the instrument richer in overtones, and faster in response." Bernd and Daniel Hiller
