“Striking and Fierce – that’s how the exterior of the Viper resonates just like its tone and the interior of its craftsmanship. This is what we call a product that comes & leaves its MARK once in a lifetime.” Sony Music artist Dennis Lau from Malaysia began his musical adventure with the piano at the […]
