Ayasa Instruments 2026 — anyone tried the new models?

Ayasa just released their 2026 lineup with a new ember steel option. The sound demos on their website are incredible. Has anyone here played one of the new models? How do they compare to their older nitrided instruments?

I visited their workshop in the Netherlands last month. The new ember steel instruments have noticeably more sustain than the older ones. The ceramic finish is gorgeous too.

Ordered one in November, still waiting. Their wait times are about 5-6 months currently. But if the sound demos are anything to go by, it'll be worth the wait.
