Bastien Burlot has been a staple of French lutherie for years, having built guitars for such giants as Thomas Viloteau and the late Roland Dyens, cultivating a unique voice that combines the power and presence of modern styles with the warmth and elegance of tradition for a simultaneously fresh, and timeless, flavor. Recently, Burlot launched a new project that ties these two ideas even more snugly: the Alkemia Series. These Classicals are inspired by the most famous cathedrals in France, with the first in this series being the Alkemia Chartres Cathedral (found about an hour outside of Paris). The tightly patterned mosaic rosette is modeled directly after the stained glass windows of the church, and inside the guitar the label features a labyrinth in homage to the floor of the cathedral’s nave. Here pilgrims have gathered for hundreds of years to walk the labyrinth in contemplation.
Here’s an additional video with Andy Jurik playing the lovely “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring” (J.S. Bach) on this Burlot Classical: https://youtu.be/3vq-Wdupyek

Ah, the sweetness that comes with age. This Paul Fischer Classical comes to us from 1998 and exhibits all the qualities we find only appear after years’ of music: breathy, expansive projection, an articulate and developed midrange, versatile response for a range of styles. It doesn’t hurt that Paul used a set of striking Brazilian Rosewood for the body and Spruce on top, plus french polish throughout. The detail work is cleanly executed throughout, especially at the flower and vine rosette and tieblock. Snakewood heelcap and buttons on Rodgers tuners are icing on the cake. Additionally, the provenance of this Fischer includes previous ownership from Douglas James, classical guitar professor of NC’s Appalachian State.
