This is German's most recent concert model to be developed. Called the "Solista", it features his newest bracing system (which has previously only been used in his top, elite models). This bracing system fattens out the tone particularly in the trebles, giving the guitar an overall warmer sound. This system has been so well received in his elite models that he decided to introduce it in an instrument at a more modest price point while retaining the same high standard of sound. And this version is left-handed and shorter scale at 640mm.
Materials selected for this guitar are incredibly beautiful, starting with a well-selected Western red-cedar soundboard and Indian rosewood for the back and sides. Flamed maple has been used in the binding, framing the guitar beautifully with its contrasting darker colored materials for the back and sides. Tuners are by Irving Sloane with snakewood buttons. The sound is very rich and warm with lyrical trebles and creamy basses - very elegant sound with ample volume for any concert setting. Playability is a breeze with a very smooth and comfortable neck. All in, this is a very versatile and strong instrument by any standard.
