This classical guitar offers clear and powerful highs,
rich in harmonics.
The bass sounds are characterized by a frank and powerful attack.
Good balance between the 6 strings.
Designed for and with the collaboration of guitarist Philippe Jean-Marie.
We focused our attention on the impact
the angle of the strings on the nut.Our work led us to the design of a tailpiecewhere the nut is independent and rests directly on the table.
At the request of several musicians from the Conservatoire,the fingerboard has been extended into the ear to the 20th fret.
The rosette is in wood marquetry, the signature in katafray marquetry. The nets on the table and on the bottom are in imitationivory ebony sycamore ebony.
The curved bottom is in 2 pieces. The reinforcement bar is mounted on request.
The size of the adjustment access plate is due to the factthat this bar can be removed very easily.This significantly changes the sound of the guitar.
This instrument can be designed with or without a reinforcement bar.
