1994 Gioachino Giussani SP/MP (ex Angel Romero)

An absolutely stunning guitar by one of Italy's most interesting guitar makers. The guitar is heavier than most due to having extra-thick back and sides. This forces the top to do all the vibrating, making this guitar project extremely well while retaining all the clarity of the note. This instrument is extremely well-suited to ensemble work (with percussion ensemble, orchestra, piano, etc.). Angel Romero has been the previous and only owner of this particular guitar to date.

The instrument is named “Elajed” and it was made with breathtaking flamed maple for the back and sides and spruce for the soundboard, and has Giussani's classic and unique aesthetic – very simple design in the headstock, rosette and purfling, which allows for the dramatic natural elements to stand out. Playability is a breeze with a comfortable neck shape. Although a second-hand instrument, the condition is excellent, virtually like-new. Incredible versatile instrument for the active concert artist looking for a workhorse of a guitar that has been broken in by none other than the great Angel Romero!

A letter from Angel Romero stating provenance is included with the guitar.
