2015 Rafael Rosado Spruce Madagascar
Comments
Rafael builds in his home town of Puerto Rico. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice this guitar presents and plays. This guitar is solid through and through. Very authentic with beautiful woods. Old German Spruce Top (very hard to find) and Madagascar RW with gorgeous figuring. Play is quite low, fast and furious. Some might even wish to bring it up a bit. Beautiful, bold round sound. An extremely good guitar at an unbelievable price.

Listening with high quality headphones or audio equipment is highly recommended including EQ manipulation, if possible. We record everything flat with just a touch of Reverb to relieve dryness. My goal is to record the guitar as realistically as is possible. I speak in the recordings, my thoughts about the guitar (and possibly other things?). My speaking also serves to give you my first impressions and to also give you a balance of the engineering (or lack thereof) versus the sound of the guitar. I simply do not have time to engineer much of anything. Thanks. Rich
MP3 Audio – rosado-2015-spruce-mad – really pretty guitar and very good sounding. Easily played. One of my favorites of the week.
My Solo Book of sheet music is available here if you’re interested.
