The characteristic tone of this instrument is dark and mellow. The dark shade and the veins of the hard, dense Grenadilla wood are clearly visible on the meticulously polished surface. The mechanical parts, which are made of nickel silver, are drop-forged and support the carefully finished, silver plated keys.
