Refined Luthier Features and Artisanal Detail

What distinguishes this model is its blend of hand-selected tonewoods and meticulous luthier techniques. Incorporating a Spanish heel neck joint, fan bracing, and a pearloid Esteso rosette, this instrument reflects premium hand-built traditions at a more accessible tier. A two-way truss rod is included for precise action adjustments—unusual among classical guitars in this class.

Concert-Grade Tonewoods and Build Quality – Full, Responsive Sound

Excellent tone starts with the selection of all-solid woods. A cedar top and Indian rosewood back and sides are chosen for their warmth and clarity, enabling nuanced expression and robust projection. The 650 mm scale and 52 mm nut width give a traditional feel and space for complex fingerings.

• Top: Solid Canadian cedar — produces rich, warm, and complex tones suited for expressive classical playing
• With solid Indian rosewood back and sides, the guitar offers clarity, sustain, and a robust bass response for demanding repertoire.
• Bracing: 7-fan bracing — enhances soundboard vibration and volume

Professional-Grade Playability and Comfort

Built for both performance and ease of play, the C10 CD W/C offers smooth transitions along the ebony fingerboard, and the C-shaped mahogany neck reduces fatigue during extended sessions. The dual-action truss rod supports tailored neck relief and a wide range of string tensions or playing styles.

• Neck: Mahogany, C shape — provides a comfortable grip and traditional classical feel
• Ebony fingerboard delivers durability and a glassy playing surface for consistent technique.
• Truss Rod: Two-way adjustable — allows for personalized setup and optimal action

Elegant Aesthetics and Premium Hardware

Finishing touches such as the Esteso-style rosette, bone nut and saddle, and gold-plated tuners speak to both function and artistry. Its high-gloss polyurethane finish protects and accentuates the instrument’s natural beauty. A lightweight polyfoam case simplifies transport for performing musicians.

• Nut Width: 52 mm — accommodates intricate left-hand technique
• The standard concert scale length of 650 mm is ideal for classical repertoire, offering balance and string tension familiar to experienced players.
• Finish: High-gloss polyurethane — durable, mirror-like protection

Advanced students, serious amateurs, and emerging professionals in need of a step-up instrument for recitals, studio work, or ensemble playing will find this model ideal. It meets the needs of classical players seeking refined tone, balance across registers, and playability in a visually striking, reliably built guitar.
