These refinements deliver quicker response, improved intonation, and added resonance across all registers. The redesigned body, bow, and bell feature a slightly wider bore taper, complemented by a redesigned tone hole system for accurate intonation and enhanced flexibility and projection. This results in a tonal character that leans toward the French tradition. The Session produces a warm, resonant sound with a focused core, making it perfect for all music styles.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRefined Body \u0026amp; Bell Construction\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: Unlike the Classic, which uses post-to-body construction, the Session employs advanced mini-ribbed construction which retains its response but adds greater stability and tonal depth. A brass rim wire around the bell adds projection and carries the full spectrum of its sound to the back of the performance hall.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProfessional Ergonomics \u0026amp; Playability\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: Every detail was designed with the player in mind: genuine mother-of-pearl key touches, blue steel springs for a quick and light action, and Pisoni Pro pads with metal resonators for enhanced durability and response. The custom ergonomic right-hand thumb rest, which is investment cast for precision and expertly sculpted, offers a comfort level that makes it hard to go back once experienced. To ensure long-term safety, the Session also features a slightly thicker and much stronger nickel-silver neckstrap ring, providing much greater resistance to neckstrap hooks wearing through over time.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePremium Finishes \u0026amp; Custom Engraving\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: Choose from three distinctive finishes: Matte Black, Matte Dark Gold, or Copper-Bronze.
