This exquisite, one-of-a-kind instrument was built by the renown German
classical guitar maker Georg Gose. Georg pulled out all the stops when
building this guitar, using his finest woods and embellishing it with
ornate mother of pearl inlays. The top is made of aged spruce, the back
sides are solid flamed maple, and the five piece neck is constructed of
walnut with dual maple splines. It has a large, 16 1/2" Favino style
body that is joined with a shorter, 660mm scale neck. The result is a
rich, incomparably warm guitar that has a thick and complex midrange, a
voluminous bass, and gently rounded highs. Additionally, the short scale
length and rock bottom 2.4mm action make it feel more like a fast
playing archtop then a typical Gypsy guitar.
The condition of this instrument is excellent, with just some light pickwear and mild fretwear.
This
is a wonderful guitar for someone who is looking for an alternative to
typical Gypsy guitars which have longer scale lengths and higher action.
This meticulously constructed instrument not only plays like butter, it
features high quality woods and details that are typically only found on
high priced custom models. Treat yourself to flagship performance at an
affordable price!
