Frequently Asked Questions

The 84 is a higher-end, professional model with a more complex tonal palette and improved valve casings; the 201S offers excellent value for its performance level.
The plating is of good quality and durable, but consistent polishing with a silver cloth is recommended to maintain its appearance and prevent tarnish.
Perinet valves offer a slightly different feel; the action is generally smooth and responsive, but requires a bit of getting used to if you’re accustomed to piston valves.
