This is amazing and brings up so many questions. I was wondering how much of this was tried, or in fact is used on the Adamas or the Q. I notice this instrument is essentially 100% Carbon fiber. Although the top is laminated, it's all CF, no wood.
Pretty interesting all in all. |

thanks for sharing. very informative. the bridge is wood though. perhaps wood transfers the vibration better? |

Location: south east Michigan | Hmmmm.. carbon fibre used in an instrument that is expected to perform at the high level. What a concept!!
They almost got it right. The back should be bowl shapped. |
