You know we're fans of Laurent Brondel's work. And while this A2 in Cedar & Walnut isn't necessarily something we'd imagine ordering ... maybe it's time to rethink what we've got in the works.

This is a fingerstyle guitar through and through. The Cedar top provides a warm, round fundamental, enriched and powered forward by the lovely looking Walnut body. This is a really fun guitar to play, and one of those immensely rewarding instruments for someone with a light touch (it actually sounds better the easier you try to coax tone from it).

Overall condition is very clean ~ although it's been played, there are no significant blemishes and the frets are very clean. With its original hard case (an Access, not a Hiscox or Calton as seen with Brondel's more recent guitars).
