2016 Maxwell Sipe #40 Spruce EIRW Classical Guitar

Comments

Max builds a superb classical guitar.    My last one was a Cedar (see photos – from the archive).  This new classical guitar is a Spruce with asymmetrical bracing, as per Max.  Beautiful woods, thoughtful and careful build, excellent workmanship all work out to a clear, bright and beautiful guitar that plays and sings.  The bracing is based off the work of Miguel Rodriguez Jr.

The case is a Humicase Protege Black HSC.  Very nice.

Strung with Savarez Alliance HT classical guitar strings

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 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 – 200421-Maxwell Sipe Classical Guitar 40 2016 Spruce EIRW – holy resonator batman!  LOL  What a guitar.  I’ll allow the mp3 to speak for itself.  Such warmth and smooth tone in the mids, brilliant in the highs and depth in the lows..
