A powerful sound, but at the same time delicate, that gives this concert guitar high-level attributes for interpretation.
The 11 P model is the highest-end before moving to the series called "signature models", Luthier's finest guitars.
The finishes of this model denote an important craftsmanship and a very refined image. It is worth noting the additional green line in the profiles, as well as the type of construction.
In this regard, the piece called heel, of the traditional construction system called "Spanish heel", in the 11 P model is composed of 5 pieces, while in the rest of the models it is only composed of a single piece.
It can also be seen that the fingerboard of the 11 P model is longer. The fingerboard extends through the mouth of the soundboard to introduce an additional fret. An element that is requested by qualified guitarists and that is necessary to play some musical pieces.
In addition, this instrument is built with bone in the saddle and nut, a material that has been traditionally used and whose vibration capabilities are exceptional. Characteristics that together with a careful selection of woods and an artisanal elaboration, produce a strong sound, with body and concert level.
The sound of the 11 P model is a powerful sound, but at the same time it can produce the most delicate and melodious notes with a sweet and refined sound.
In short, a guitar that responds amply to the demands of the guitarist and that when you have it in your hands feels robust, transmits energy and enjoys making it sound.
Some characteristics that provide this concert guitar with high-level attributes for interpretation.
Recommended Strings: This guitar comes with D'Addario EXP44 Extra Hard Tension strings installed. These are not bad strings, but don't allow the guitar to live up to its full potential. I recommend the following strings for this guitar:
Nylon: For nylon strings, I really like Savarez Corum New Cristal set 500CJ stings. They provide a nice round tone, good volume, and a comfortable feel.
If you would like to have strings installed other than the ones that come with your guitar, you can add the Strings Installation Service to your order.
