John Price classical guitar No. 350 cedar/South American Rosewood – Australia
John Price specializes in making an arched, braceless back guitar, designed to maximise strength and allow better airflow inside the soundbox to enhance the projection of the instrument markedly. It has a ‘focusing’ effect on the classical guitar’s overall sound, and minimizes the dampening effect when the classical guitar is held too close to the body. This 352 is an true example of John’s work.
