ItalianWhen it comes to concert guitar, nothing compares to the Greg Smallman guitars .. until we found the guitars from Andreas Madimenos. Here is a small comparison video between these great master guitars :
-
Andreas Madimenos No 48 – lattice Greece
-
Greg Smallman & sons 2014 – lattice Australia
Andreas Madimenos is our last crush: a lattice guitar with a loud and natural sound. This lattice guitar No 48 is a brand new model from Andreas Madimenos – Greece. The objective was to create a loud and highly musical guitar that could easily compete with Greg Smallman’s guitars. The least that we can say is that this No 48 is highly above many of the Greg Smallman’s guitars that we played. You should watch Philippe’s review and the comparison video that we made with a 2014 Greg Smallman guitar. You will love it
We will receive next week a brand new Andreas Madimenos.
We have made a few comparative classical guitar videos but we use them sparingly because each classical guitar has its strengths and weak points and the videos only put forward the sound for the listener and not what the musician could feel. Philippe strives to show the whole sound palette that each instrument can offer. Comparing two classical guitars only on the sound characteristics is to disregard the comfort of play and the capacity of the instrument to sublimate the musical intentions of each guitarist. The most beautiful palette of colours will not deliver a beautiful picture without the art of the painter and his brush stroke. Comparing classical guitar “deux a deux” means putting emphasis on differences and obliging the listener to choose. A rich method of teaching to ‘educate’ his ear knowing that the final choice will be based on a series of compromises to seek the right balance in sound colours.
