2004 Alberico OM Cocobolo/German Calton Case!
The Alberico OM Ophelia Model in gorgeous German Spruce and Cocobolo Rosewood is as lyrical and responsive as it is beautiful, with a full, robust low end and crisp attack that’s complimented perfectly with loads of chime and sparkle. And that tone sings out all the way up the fretboard, then sustains beautifully before fading away. A cutaway allows easy upper fret access, and the stunning Cocobolo is perfectly quartersawn. A lovely abalone and rosewood rosette round out this wonderfully versatile instrument. Oh yes and it comes with a Calton Flight Case!

Fabrizio Alberico is one of the modern builders who is well known for the incredible build quality, playability and tone his guitars offer. This is a very cleanly built guitar and you can tell it comes from a builder who loves his craft. I had the pleasure of meeting Fab at the Swannanoa Gathering one summer and he is a very genuine individual and his love of music comes through in his guitars. This OM, named ‘Emma’, has an articulate and sweet voice. The Cedar top is warm and full sounding while the rosewood adds power and brilliance. The setup is perfect and we love the small sound port that allows the player to hear it in detail.

This is an extremely beautiful Grand Auditorium crafted from a stunning set of Ziricote by luthier Fabrizio Alberico. The Ziricote has dramatic figure and gives this guitar a bright, clear voice. The German top is master grade and has a rich golden patina. The rosette is a gorgeous ribbon design and along with the figure Ziricote headplate sets this guitar apart from the others on the wall, it’s simply eye catching. This is a great large body guitar for the player seeking a big, but bright voice with great bass response that always remains clear.

II’m not sure my parents knew it, but as soon as they named me, they created a woodworker. What else could I be, given that Fabrizio means “craftsman” and Alberico means “tree”? And since my Grandmother was a D’Addario of the famous string-making family, you could say I was destined to become a luthier.My first real introduction to the guitar came during University, when I was looking to learn an instrument that was more portable than the piano. The acoustic guitar intrigued and inspired me from the very beginning. I loved the fact that it was relatively simple to play, yet incredibly difficult to play well. I became an immediate admirer of the fingerstyle method of playing, and went about learning everything I could about the style. The more I learned, the more I realized that very few guitars deliver the responsiveness, balance, dynamic range, and complexity of tone that fingerstyle players demand. What began as a curiosity about how the guitar is built, quickly developed into my education as a luthier, informally at first, and then through an apprenticeship with master luthier Sergei de Jonge of Oshawa, Ontario, Canada.Sergei has been building exquisite concert classical guitars for 30 years. His classical guitars possess the tonal qualities that are so elusive in the steel-string world, and many of his ideas on construction and bracing have crossed over into the steel-string with great success. I have combined these ideas with those of other great builders, added a few of my own innovations, and come up with designs for guitars that are ideal for fingerstyle players.-Fabrizio Alberico I
I’ve enjoyed the work of Fabrizio Alberico for years. We get to see one another at the various shows and it’s always a pleasure. He’s truly inspired in his art and I love to play his guitars. Every time we get an Alberico in the shop I’m sure to spend time with it.
