2016 Bernd Martin SP/IN

This guitar is a perfect example of what makes the "Granada style" so attractive to the most meticulous of players - it is easy to play for both left and right hand; has quick response across all registers; excellent volume and projection, and perhaps most importantly - a beautiful, lyrical quality of sound. Finally, craftsmanship and materials are superb - the elegant lines in the rosette and detail work frame the instrument beautifully, and the spruce used for the soundboard has gorgeous cross grain silk from having been sawn right on the quarter. The Indian rosewood back and sides are striking with the elegant use of snakewood in the purfling. Simply an exquisite guitar to both eye and ear. As fine an example of this luthier's best work we have offered to date.
