La Roja

This is a classical guitar with asymmetrical bracing and a bold, distinctive character. Built from padauk, it offers a deep, vibrant tone rich in harmonics. Though traditional in construction, its appearance is striking and contemporary. Finished by hand with shellac, it preserves the full acoustic qualities of the wood.
