Glass soundboard

[Bec and John]

HI Vladan,

I listened to the recordings on the website. Although different 
recording techniques can vary the sound of any particular piano, there 
are a few different recording sources so I think you can get a general 
feel for the sound of the piano.

Although it has an interesting sound, personally I find all the 
recordings to be lacking the "woody" warmth I love about certain 
pianos. Could be the recording, but my first guess is not. Maybe 
someone might prefer the sound of it, who knows. I think it's rather 
insensitive sounding, makes it sound more percussive, so I think it'd 
further the cause of the inventor to make a recording with a less 
percussive pianist.
