Grand Auditorium, Spruce – Maple, made in 2024

The most noticeable feature of this guitar might be the specially figured maple for back and sides. It’s not exactly what is usually called “quilted” maple. The word-by-word translation from German would be “shell-maple”. Personally, I feel reminded of lunar craters, very attractive as I think!
