Tobias Braun of Gaaden near Vienna.

  2011

• Body:

  East Indian rosewood - with the most unusual and gorgeous colours; particularly on the back, with maple purflings and rosewood bindings.

• Front:

  European bearclaw spruce - cut from a tree which Tobias regards as very special because of the density and stiffness of the timber. The intricate rosette features a key motif; a heraldic symbol of the town. Note - the bridge saddle when new, was left long to be cut to length after action height selection. Lovely multi-line purflings and rosewood bridge

• Condition:

  New and looking very handsome. All shellac french polished.

• Comments:

  Tobias Braun makes very high quality instruments often with exceptional material quality. This particular instrument has the most beautiful Indian rosewood and a very fine spruce top. With influences from 1912 Manuel Ramirez and 1924 Santos, these guitars are designed to maintain the quick, Spanish response of the smaller-bodied guitar combined with a rich, deep bass of larger Santos body.
  This one has immediate quality with a deep bass that holds the bottom octave well, combined with a sweet and characterful treble. The projection and recording quality is particularly good. A fine concert guitar for performer, collector or anyone that appreciates the beauty of this level of craftsmanship.
