This is our first Simon Marty, and we’re already eager for the next! Such a lovely example of the contemporary classical guitar from 2008. Pardo back and sides strike a rich red hue, and pair with Spruce on top and a Gilbert-style bridge plus arm rest. An intricate and colorful mosaic rosette pops very nicely; plus a slightly slender neck profile feels glossy and easy in hand. Gilbert tuners at the headstock are a plus, with a 650mm scale and 52mm nut. All wrapped up in a custom Karura case for maximum safety on those rare moments you aren’t playing it!

An elegant and classic voice with a Spruce top that is open and offering it full palette of colors. 
Australian builder Simon Marty brings modern design to the classical mold with this one. A nod to Gilbert at the bridge and tuners, domed back reminding me of Smallman, and a satin finished top for maximum resonance. | Scale Length | 25.6 in |
