Condition: Brand new, 2026
The matte cedar top provides a clean, glare free presentation while remaining practical and low maintenance. The rosette features refined geometric detailing with golden toned wood accents, subtle and sophisticated. The Honduran rosewood back and sides display dramatic figuring with warm orange brown hues, elevating the instrument visually without excess ornamentation. A gently scooped heel allows comfortable upper fret access, and the setup is low and effortless.
The tonal character is defined by richness and clarity. The first string sings with ease, while the basses remain full and supportive without overshadowing inner voices. Chords bloom with complex overtones yet maintain strong separation.
Dynamic control is a standout feature. Large crescendos remain stable and expansive, while softer passages retain presence and projection. The guitar responds immediately to articulation and supports smooth, connected legato playing.
Brand new, 2026 build. Freshly arrived from the Giussani workshop in Italy and in perfect condition.
