Small Jumbo "True Temperament" Padouk / Salvaged High Elevation Cedar
As Roger Schmidt say : " If ever there was a guitar that could promise a fingerstyle instrumentalist that , yes, if you buy this guitar, it comes with a whole bunch of new tunes, this one could be it...but that's just if ever. It really is amazing of how the Padouk rings so well (very similar in properties than brazilian rosewood)..."
What is True Temparament:
With a revolutionary new approach to the design of the guitar’s fretboard, True Temperament delivers an accuracy of fret scaling never before achieved in the history of the guitar. Genuine innovation, and a radical new fretting technique, make it possible to accurately implement any target temperament on the guitar, while retaining full playability.
A magnificent inspiring and precise instrument to have in your arsenal
