An exercise in smoothness, that’s what you get with this Ryan Nightingale in Madagascar Rosewood & Spruce. The play feel, smooth; bass register, velvety; trebles, round and full. Right down to Kevin’s fit-n-finish, this 2010 Nightingale operates like a well-oiled machine. It’s easy to lose track of time when you tune this beauty up to Standard (or down to C9) and get into it with your fingerstyle repertoire. The note separation is exquisite, such that individual notes are clearly defined and distinct but work together harmoniously to create a rich voice. The visual presentation is equally flawless; we love Kevin’s integrated acoustic flutes arm bevel, and tasteful Abalone appointments.

This is a big, strong Ryan guitar, more powerful than some I played from Kevin. The Rosewood is simply gorgeous and the fluted bevel is not only elegant but make sure that you get to hear it all. | Scale Length | 25.75 in |
