Piero Begali makes some of the best Morse keys and paddles in the world. The Magnetic Classic is a great example of his skills and artistry. It uses magnets rather than springs for the return force. This example has the palladium-plated base, which provides a stunning contrast. In addition, it has gold-plated contacts, an option that is not available in current production, which avoids corrosion problems that can get in the way of your signal.

Comes with all of the original packing and accessories (the dust cover is showing its age, but is quite functional) and three sets of finger pieces: short aluminum, long aluminum, and the original long plastic.
