To achieve the same sustain and power of a contemporary piano in the treble register, Chris Maene has come up with an innovative solution: a unique, patented soundboard consisting of two parts.
Contrary to the bass and middle register, the grain of the soundboard of the treble part doesn’t follow the strings but has been redirected parallel to the bridges. This maximizes the use of the smaller soundboard area and results in a more powerful, rich sound quality for the upper register.
