Domenic Roscioli # 213 2024 lattice – Australia
Here is a brand new lattice guitar from Domenic. Dominique has re-engineered how he builds his guitar with the help of Jim Redgate. The tone color is magnificent with a great balance between clarity and warmness. The sound is loud and natural.
Domenic is also building Fleta replicas, and he pays great attention to sound quality. He developed his skills with the great Jim Redgate, who became his mentor and taught him the secrets of making lattice guitars. So, his guitars share many common principles with Jim’s guitars. Jim Redgate was with us two years ago, and when we asked him which luthier he would recommend, he said Domenic Roscioli. Nothing to add.
Domenic makes only 10 guitars per year. Numerous players in Australia play Domenic’s guitar such as Ziggy and Miles Johnson…
Domenic Roscioli’s guitars are similar but with their own personality to Jim Redgate’s guitars: both are light with the objective of capturing a more natural sound. Both have a rather thick for a more woody sound and a lighter body.
This guitar is offering :
- It is a lattice guitar with an arched back and sides layered to give a more rigid form and avoid using inner wood inside which makes the guitar too heavy. The guitar is pretty light 1,800 kg.
- The back and sides are in Amara Ebony with nice binding in maple. There are some green filets all around the guitar. The polish is nitrocellulose which is quite a solid polish. Domenic polished the inside of the guitar as well to prevent from moisture. (nice idea).
- The top is in red cedar from Canada with a mat finish, a nice rosette.
- Nice bridge in with 12-hole tie block, extra c note, elevated fingerboard. Ebony Fretboard.
- Nice headstock and Gotoh premium tuners.
- 52 mm nit width and low action.
As conclusion: a very nice guitar which has everything a great guitar should have:
- deep basses, thick notes,
- plenty of overtones,
- great playability
- and most importantly a dynamics very close to a traditional guitar with a very woody and warm sound, full and very natural.
