Featherweight build making for a powerful voice. Our 2018 Francois Leonard is a fantastic example of modern French lutherie with Flamed Maple back and sides plus Spruce on top, a 650mm setup, and 3.5lb build weight. Quick and lively voice with a bright, expressive string energy across the registers, thanks to a lattice bracing system and doubled sides, and Leonard’s masterful French Polish technique throughout to keep the tonewoods as light and resonant as possible.

This 2018 Classical has an understated aesthetic and slim build weight to go with its energetic voice. | Scale Length | 25.6000 in |
