Frequently Asked Questions

The Elysia offers noticeably improved tonewoods and craftsmanship compared to the Primario, resulting in a richer and more resonant sound, but the Primario is more budget-friendly.
The shellac finish is more delicate than modern lacquers; regular care and avoiding impacts are essential to prevent damage.
The Pirastro strings offer a warm, full tone, suitable for a wide range of musical styles – expect a balanced and relatively mellow character.
