Direct from Germany a brand new concert guitar by Jost von Huene !!!
Jost came highly recommended to me by Daniel Stark, this exact guitar was hand picked for me by Daniel while it took part in a 30 guitar comparison this year at the Hamburg guitar festival !!!
Boy was Daniel right !!! It is a beautiful instrument with exquisite construction details that harken back to the traditional styles of Torres and Arias but yet with concert level projection !!!
The spruce top has been expertly aged to give the guitar a unique, vintage look, while the delicate purflings rosette adds a touch of elegance and refinement. When it comes to sound, this guitar delivers in spades. It’s stable, reliable, and offers a vast sound that’s smooth and easy to play.
A must try…
