It is truly a wonderful traditional handmade Classical Guitar with a beautiful solid exotic East Indian Rosewood for the back and sides. The top is a master grade solid Western Red Cedar tight grained with medullary rays. The Rosette consists of a traditional rosette with roses and birds.
The guitar has a lattice bracing system that provides great amount of strength to the top; however, the thickness of the top is more less similar to a traditional guitar top. Therefore, the projection of this guitar is quite loud and well suited for concerts and chamber music.
The tone is naturally rich, full and sweet with full deep and punchy bass a nice ringing trebles. Over time with regular playing once the guitar fully opens up with turn out to be a masterpiece. The guitar has a noticeably long sustain and nice overtones. The consistency of tone is across the full range of the fingerboard.
The bridge has a 12-hole tie block that increases the break angle of the strings to the bridge which helps to improve the overall responsiveness of the guitar. The rosette is in the traditional style with birds and roses inlaid design.
East India Rosewood from India is favourite tonewood among luthiers and many players. It’s one of the most stable Rosewoods and has a deep, rich tone and beautiful brown colour with sometimes a purple hue. The set on this guitar is absolutely gorgeous sight
