- Description

Jose Marin Plazuelo has shared a shop space with his uncle, Antonio Marin Montero, since he began building guitars in his youth. Between the two of them, they have produced a number of astoundingly responsive and resonant classicals, and this Bouchet model with Indian Rosewood back and sides and a Spruce top is a fine example of Plazuelo's mastery of the craft, even compared to his uncle's own masterworks.The voice is warm and sweet, with a delicate responsiveness that plays beautifully in adagio but doesn't top out easily in crescendo. Instead, the Bouchet projects fiercely, with great sustain. Set up like silk, the neck is effortless to fret, and the lightweight build is exceedingly comfortable to play.With an easy muscularity and playful expressiveness, this is a powerful example of traditional classical guitar construction at its finest.
Plazuelo's built a lot of projection into this richly-voiced and responsive classical. I could lose myself in the subtle overtones and sustain.
