New York by way of Armenia luthier Manouk Papazian was well known for not only his classicals, but also his lutes and cellos, even violins. It takes a special builder to be able to coax good tone out of so many different shapes. This Classical comes to us from 1970 and is in great playing shape, featuring Brazilian Rosewood back and sides plus Spruce top and a 650mm scale.

There are some qualities that only come with time. This Papazian has been making music for over 50 years, and with all those years under its belt it's opened up handsomely. Clean trebles and an expressive midrange.
