That's in part because he tunes the 12 string A-D-A-D-A-D. And even has a special set of strings made up for it. (Believe the bass string is nylon).
The duo sounds good, but is definitely different with just the interplay of two rather than three. Mikael Marin is also playing a viola with a much larger body these days. Seriously, it looks like he has a 1/8 sized cello under his chin.
