“Absolutely crystal-clear, pure, stable, and perfect sound of the entire instrument. Beautiful high piano tones and low bass notes give you chills every time from the very first seconds of playing! The instrument amazes more and more each day, and the immense pleasure and satisfaction from playing it lasts indefinitely, allowing you to tell musical stories endlessly. Finally, you realise that it is your best and most devoted friend :)”
