About the Guitar
This brand-new guitar is Daniele Marrabelloâs latest creation and a continuation of his meticulously refined concert model.
The soundboard is made of Alpine spruce, while the back and sides are crafted from Indian rosewood. This combination results in a traditional, rather light tone with strong bass response. The sustain is excellent, allowing even the slowest melodies to be articulated with precision, while the abundance of overtones gives even the simplest lines a rich, full sound. The tone is both refined and powerful.
The use of Indian rosewood significantly enhances the guitarâs projection and overall volume, giving it the strength and presence required for concert performance. It beautifully renders complex polyphonic textures with clarity and depth. Additionally, it offers an exceptionally natural timbreâorganic and pleasing to the ear.
