No doubt Ettore is referencing Antonio Stradivari of Cremona (1649-1737) who made violins with his relatives. The Stradivari was entered into the World Yo-Yo Contest Mod Competition and it quickly became something of a living legend yo-yo in the short time it was there. We saved it from the drooling masses and safely deposited the only living copy here on the interweb thingy. Yes, that's right, this is the only Stradivari in existence, Ettore will be making three more for private buyers however they wont be like this one. It looks like a prop from a Ridley Scott movie, however it plays incredibly well although I wouldn't recommend throwing such an expensive yo-yo, I had to at least see what it could do, right? It is in perfect condition making use of a D size bearing, sandblasted finish, and the coolest looking response system ever with chopped Dif pads. It comes with a hand made jewelry case, Violin straddle, and a book showing step by step just how Ettore put this incredible work of art together.
