Famed French builder Daniel Friderich requires no introduction here. This particular example of his work comes to us from his late period in 2005 with Cedar top over Indian Rosewood back and sides, 650mm scale, and an orchestrally pianisitic voice. This Concert Classical weighs in under four pounds, in part from the thin and resonant french polish finish throughout. Fifth and seventh fret side dot position markers are a nod to modernity, but elsewhere this Friederich is a classic Classical, including a full neck profile with U-shaped carve, fan bracing, and Rodgers tuners. Comes in a custom carbon fiber flight case.
