Description

Australian luthier Ashley Sanders crafts an incredible guitar, hands down. This Classical is relatively new from 2018, but has an impressively opened up voice and responsiveness. Ziricote back and sides with a lattice braced Cedar top, Rubner deluxe tuners and Snakewood buttons—and this Australian-style Classical only weighs in at five pounds. The Ziricote back is slightly arched à la Greg Smallman, adding volume and power to the voice. 12-hole tieblock for increased break angle at the saddle, and Sanders added side dots at the 5th and 7th fret for creature comfort.

Ashley Sanders is highly regarded as one of the great Australian makers in the style of Greg Smallman. A modern design throughout offering power for the modern player. This guitar is exciting to play. Like having a Ferrari, I imagine.
