Kim Lissarrague No 380 2022 - Australia

‌

Once again, this superb classical guitar from the luthier Kim Lissarrague is maybe our best guitar in stock. Many concert players have chosen Kim guitars mostly because of their wonderful tone and their loudness. have a look at our video review, and you will understand why this guitar offers so much playing potential. This No. 380 as a top with a mat finish. The latest Lissarrague we had since early 2019 have something different compared to the older ones: the notes are thicker which gives the player more freedom.

José Ramirez Elite 2003
 

‌

The Ramirez guitars have contributed to build  ‘Spanish’ sound that everybody loves. There are of course many guitar models, the 1a being surely the most famous one. To celebrate the first centenary of the Ramirez house founded in 1882 by José Ramírez I ,  José Ramírez III build an exclusive guitar called Centenario. This Elite handmade guitar has been build in 2003 to satisfy the request of many clients who asked for an instrument similar in ornamentation, beauty and wood selection to the Centenario guitar, but more affordable.  

Felix Muller doubletop - Germany

‌

We have been waiting for it for many years and finally, our Felix Muller double-top guitar arrived. Felix is a young German builder who is building guitars strongly influenced by the work of his father Antonius Muller. Antonius Muller is a worldwide famous builder whose guitars are played by huge concert players such as Sharon Isbin and Marko Topchii. The guitar is on hold at that date.

Greg Smallman & Sons 2009

‌

On hold !  There is a huge number of great concertists who plays on Greg Smallman’s guitars (John Williams, Xuefei Yang, Milos Karadaglic,..). Their guitars are among for sure the best Greg Smallman’s. If you wondering what is a good Greg Smallman guitar, you should have a look at Philippe’s review. The guitar is on hold at that date.

Jim Redgate 2009 - Australia

‌

The guitar is already on hold. However we decided to advertise it just to give you an idea about the sound of an 'old' Jim Redgate. We have the chance to list 2 brand new Jim Redgate guitar per year. Contact us to hold the next one still available in 2024.

Comparison Greg Smallman & Sons versus Andreas Madimenos

When 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, contact us to hold the guitar.
