Bridge Lyra Dragon custom model, Illusion Bronze

The Bridge Illusion Bronze Lyra Dragon is a custom "hi-spec" model, equipped with Wittner Finetune geared pegs and upgraded electronics that use two coin-cell batteries. We found the instrument's tone better balanced across the instrument's range than the standard Lyra, with a noticeably stronger output and more brilliance on the high strings, without treble harshness. The Dragon Lyras are now available in a variety of custom colors. This one is their gorgeous Illusion Bronze finish -- look through all the photos -- only an actual dragon's scale might show more color-changing ability.This "hi-spec" custom Illusion Bronze Lyra Dragon from Bridge Violins in the UK sports several upgrades from the standard model, built in the Far East. With upgraded electronics and Wittner Finetune pegs, this is the Lyra for players who are willing to make a bigger investment in an instrument of greater quality. First and foremost, it's always about tone, and this is where the Lyra Dragon really shines. We already love the sound of the standard Bridge models, yet this Dragon model sounded noticeably better than the standard Bridge 5-string we tested it against. Immediate first impressions were of the instrument's stronger output, but what really stood out and stayed with us was the beautiful balance of its tone. This Lyra has much more brilliance on the high strings, exhibiting a sparkle and clarity of tone with a notable absence of the harshness that sometimes plagues the violin's upper register when it's amplified. Now available in a variety of custom colors, this Dragon Lyra is finished in their beautiful Illusion Bronze paint. Look through all the photos -- this finish exhibits color-changing abilities difficult to capture, that only an actual dragon's scale could hope to match! Tuning is a breeze with the Wittner Finetune pegs, nearly making the fine tuners built into the Wittner composite tailpiece obsolete. The price of the Illusion Bronze Dragon Lyra includes the same custom hard shell case and carbon composite bow that comes with standard Bridge models.
