The woods are of amazingly high quality: German spruce can be found in the top, with an straight and even grain. The back and sides are made of the best Madagascar rosewood, with beautiful shades and drawings.

The sound coming out of this guitar is of amazing quality, with an incredible volume, deep and powerful in the bass strings. The trebles are vivid and bright, with great scope and sustain.

The tension is middle, making an easy but safe execution possible. Besides, a very balanced height of strings in the saddle and fingerboard provides the performer with great comfort.
