  • Comments:

    This is one of the last guitars from Rolf Eichinger before he died in September 2009.
    It is a very traditionally-built, fan-strutted instrument with so may good qualities ... depth, clarity, focus, balance, rounded flexible sound... easy to play (64 scale), plenty of volume and projection. It is just a lovely, sweet instrument with fine materials and tastefully reserved decoration.
    For someone looking for a 64 scale quality guitar, you can't go wrong.
