With this new guitar n° 72 Andreas Madimenos continues to improve his overpowering guitar concept. The new n°72 offers a more natural sound but with incomparable note thickness. The thick notes are complemented by warm harmonic resonances. The duration of the notes is endless. Andreas Madimenos is a Greek luthier whose guitars are very much on a par with the best Australian guitars. His guitars are by no means copies, and are simply inspired by a few principles. The result is a beautiful guitar with a round, suave color that will appeal to concert players and amateurs alike. The variations in tone and volume are astonishing, much to the delight of the performer. In addition to the review, you’ll find a comparison with a Smallman made with a previous Andreas guitar.

Additional information

Here is the latest guitar from Andreas: Andreas changes some small things such as the body shape and the bracing to get a louder sound The objective was to create a loud and highly musical guitar that could easily compete with Greg Smallman’s guitars. You should watch Philippe’s review and the comparison video that we made with a 2014 Greg Smallman guitar. The Greg Smallman’s guitars are huge guitars but the Madimenos is not so far.

We have been blown away by the sound quality of his new guitar which surely will count among the next great concert guitars: warm tone, loud, thick trebles with a lot of tone colors. The playability is perfect and the craftsmanship is wonderful with high attention to detail. Last but not least, the guitar is available at a very reasonable price.

The guitar is beautiful with a lot of purflings and inlays. The guitar has a Shellac polish. Watch the review video if you want to be convinced by the quality.
