Our very first from Michel Aboudib, this 00 from 2024, serial number 26, is decked out in Austrian Spruce and East Indian Rosewood and has a lot going on. Michel’s signature style of rosette carving clearly reflects an original continuation of his time working with the one and only Ervin Somogyi. The satin neck feel, in contrast to the gloss body, is always a favorite combo for us here at the shop, and the feel of this neck, in particular, is quite comfortable. The detail in the bridge carving is incredibly stunning. So much work and detail are present in the appearance of this instrument—not to mention the sound. But we’ll let you hear and see that for yourself!

We had the pleasure of meeting Michel Aboudib at the Woodstock show last year and were immediately captivated by his unique style and voice. We are thrilled to have one of his creations in the shop! 
Quick string response and a bright flavor to the mids and bass, plus treble strings that really pop. This is the first Aboudib to come through the shop, and I gotta say I'm impressed with the strength of the voice with its slender 00 proportions. | Scale Length | 25.4 in |
