2008
Indian rosewood with lined sides, attractive centre strip and purflings
European spruce - with bearclaw / haselfichte. 7 fan-strut design (the maker also produces double-tops). Geometric rosette. Rosewood bridge of individual design with burlwood tie-block capping and 18 string tie holes giving three optional forms of string tie.
Nicolo Alessi - new ones, with dimpled sideplates and ebony buttons
65cm with elevated fingerboard and 20th fret.
52mm at the nut
A few very minor little marks on the front, otherwise as new.
Although the shape of the head and bridge suggest a modern design approach, the main interior design of this model is actually quite traditional; i.e. 7-fan braced. The sound is strong with a full bass, strong treble and good overall balance. A good concert-level guitar at affordable price.
