90 years old highly figured Brazilian rosewood, Alpine spruce top, Lattice Bracing,
Armrest, 640mm, radius, Exclusive Leather hand embossed case. SPECTACULAR !

This guitar is worth every word of praise that one can think of: Beautiful, majestic, spectacular.... She really is a little bit of all these adjectives because the way the 90 years old Brazilian rosewood from Rio and the Alpine spruce form Val D'Aosta matched is simply unbelievable. The two woods help each other in creating one of the richest sounds you'll ever hear on a concert guitar.... deep round basses that send shivers through the player's body and clear trebles that carry the melody majestically. Every mid range tone and harmonic is present to take the sound to the next level.
A gorgeous Russian rosette decorates the sound hole and every detail in the marquetry adds to he grandeur of this Brazilian rosewood Queen.
The action is fast and easy. 640 is definitely the way to go for most players. Unfortunately most are unaware that they play on the wrong scale. Regarding the optional Violin tie: The tailpiece on a guitar is called for just as it is on every other member of the strings family (violin, etc.). When the first classical guitars were built, gut strings were the norm... the tension on these was nothing compared to modern nylon strings. A tailpiece was redundant... Anchoring the strings to the lower bout meet point, which is one of the sturdiest parts of the instrument, allows the builder to thin the top more allowing for a much bigger sound and not recur to the use of carbon fiber (Smallman and others) that give the guitar a "plastic sound. ". This guitar was prepared to work without the tailpiece. Still, the piece is ready to be mounted on request. In that case, the reinforcing strut is removed.
An A++ concert guitar.

I High altitude spruce (pines)

Italian Alpine spruce grows at extremely high altitudes in very cold environment. This slows the growth making the fibers tight and musically very resonant. A beautiful range of sound with a fast response. Clear trebles and a reverberating bass that makes the whole body vibrate.
