With a good balance between bass and treble, this instrument is perfectly suited to the baroque repertoire. The handle is comfortable and facilitates playing with the left hand.
All in all, this guitar deserves to gain more power, which would allow better projection in large rooms. Its first quality being a lot of intimacy and a sound full of roundness, it is a beautiful instrument with light, honey tones and sober violin making.
"Philippe has made an attractive guitar with a good compromise."
Patrick SIDA, concert performer and guitar teacher
