"My Junior does indeed sound more open, woody and fresh. The mids take a step back, the basic tone becomes more powerful without starting to squeeze."
"... - with success. Highest demands on manufacturing quality and material are paired with first-class vibration behavior including sound development.
Stephan Hildebrand (guitar 03/21)
"The sustain of my guitar alone has improved so permanently that my flippant statement - twice as long as before the rebuild - is probably still below the real figures."
"Complex chords a la John Petrucci are now resolved so clearly that you can work with considerably more distortion than usual if needed. "
“. . . this thing substantially improves the performance of the guitar . . . "
" Fast figures on muted bass strings literally explode and harmonics ring out on an unprecedented scale. "
Alexander Heimbrecht (grand guitars 01/2020)
... In this respect, do not underestimate
the influence of the bridge and tailpiece.
How they in combination transport the tone
and vibrate the tone has an enormous influence on the quality and color of the same.
The Cardinal features the KMS "One", an optimized tune-o-matic bridge that obviously provides the very best tone transport on par with the exceptionally expertly built instrument."
"... Acoustics: Already listening to the first chords, worlds open up, something special opens up. This elegant unrolling, the harmonious interlocking of the voices, the colorful development of overtones in the even course of vibration: fabulous! ...
Franz Holtmann (gitarre & bass 12/20)
"In direct comparison . . . the Flow Trem sounds fatter and above all delivers more sustain and a more precise string separation . . ."
" It seems to reproduce the sound more fully, there is no bar flickering. "
"Retune? We didn't have to. The tuning remained perfect. Honestly, I've never experienced that in such consistency."
" Impressive and uncompromisingly good in this division".
