This is one wicked wicked stick, the best way to describe it is that it is balanced in every respect, nothing too extreme in any of its characteristics. Back pressure is just right, not lung-bustingly high and not low either. Acoustics are right down the middle, with good spread of harmonics, good depth and bass, good higher frequencies. Like all of Burrngupurrngu's best instruments, this one is sensitive, responsive, and lively. Fully ochre-painted too!
Arnold Djunbiya puts this yidaki through its paces. Awesome.
